Description
Offered with no forward chain, this three-bedroom semi-detached house has a generous plot and scope for modernisation. The ground floor includes a kitchen with fitted wall and base units and space for a small table, alongside a spacious living room with a front-facing window and fireplace. Two lean-to areas and a downstairs WC provide additional utility space. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including two described as doubles, and a separate shower room with a shower enclosure and wash hand basin.
Outside, the property has a large front lawn bordered by established hedging and mature trees, with a driveway running alongside the house and providing off-road parking. At the rear, a paved courtyard and several substantial timber outbuildings offer storage and potential for a range of uses. The location is on the outskirts of Southampton, with motorway access, playing fields and local shops nearby.

36out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
This three-bedroom semi offers a substantial canvas: a spacious-looking living room, generous plot, off-road parking and rear timber outbuildings that could be reassessed as part of a wider improvement plan. The dated finishes, exposed floorboards, marked ceiling staining and deteriorated outbuildings give the project plenty of scope, with works estimated at £44,000–£78,000. The stained ceiling needs investigation, and the condition of the timber structures should be checked.
Key opportunities
- Use the dated finishes and exposed boards across the living room, bedrooms and shower room as a chance to create a more coherent interior, while retaining or updating the living room’s fireplace and large-window character.
- Rework the older kitchen and shower-room finishes as part of a whole-house improvement rather than making piecemeal cosmetic changes.
- Make better use of the generous plot, driveway and rear courtyard, and assess whether the timber outbuildings can be repaired or adapted for useful storage or other purposes.
Key risks
- Dated finishes across several rooms, exposed boards, ceiling staining and deteriorated timber outbuildings point to a £44,000–£78,000 full-project programme, with the ceiling cause and outbuilding condition to establish before budgeting.
- At £290,000, the asking price is £353/sqf versus a £323/sqf local average; adding the £44,000–£78,000 works range leaves purchase-plus-works costs stretched against the local floor-area benchmark, which is not a post-works value forecast.
