Description

This substantial three-bedroom detached house in Upper Shirley offers a promising renovation opportunity for those looking to create their ideal family home. While the property requires significant updating and modernisation, it features essential attributes such as UPVC double glazing and a modern Worcester combination boiler, providing a solid base for enhancements. The generous plot includes a detached garage and private driveway, ensuring ample off-road parking. The spacious layout comprises an entrance porch, a welcoming hallway with under stairs storage, and two well-proportioned reception rooms that could benefit from contemporary reconfiguration. The kitchen has potential for redesign into an open-plan space, perfect for family living when fully updated. Upstairs, the property boasts three genuine double bedrooms filled with natural light, particularly an impressive main bedroom that presents opportunities for adding an ensuite bathroom. The family bathroom and separate W.C. are functional but would require modernising to meet today's standards. Furthermore, the expansive loft space opens up possibilities for future development pending planning approval. Situated on a quiet road known for its desirable location near top local schools and convenient access to Southampton Common and city centre amenities, this property is also well connected by major transport links including the M3 and M27. With its spacious dimensions and untapped potential, this home presents an exceptional chance for buyers to tailor renovations according to personal tastes or for investors seeking a valuable project.
