Description

This traditional semi-detached Collins house presents a rare opportunity for renovation, available for sale for the first time in nearly seventy years without any forward chain. Boasting a spacious southerly facing rear garden of approximately 95' x 41', there is considerable potential to create an outdoor retreat or additional structures such as a studio or summerhouse.

Situated within the highly desirable Uplands Estate, which holds conservation status, this property benefits from its proximity to key amenities including the University, General Hospital, and the vibrant offerings of Portswood Broadway. The home requires modernisation, making it an appealing project for both upsizers and downsizers looking to personalise their living space.

The entrance features a large reception hall that sets the tone for the home. The layout includes a shower room to the left and a dining room with charming front views and original mantelpiece on the right. A separate lounge area showcases stripped floorboards, windows, and French doors that open to the garden. Oversized storage spaces flank the mantelpiece along with an elegant leaded light display cabinet.

While the sizable kitchen necessitates refurbishing, remnants of classic design remain such as an original full-height dresser and quarry tiled flooring. Upstairs hosts four generously sized bedrooms complemented by a bathroom needing installation and a separate WC.

In terms of outdoor space, the front garden features hedging along its boundary while a driveway provides off-road parking leading to a detached brick-built garage. The lush rear garden is primarily laid to lawn with established greenery including mature Wisteria which enhances appeal. Additionally, there are sheds nestled among mature Laurels and Rhododendrons.

This leasehold property comes with substantial unexpired years remaining and minimal ground rent obligations.
