Bright town-centre home with river views and renovation potential.
Chain free three-bedroom terraced house with river views
Set on an elevated cul-de-sac in the heart of Romsey, this three-bedroom terraced home delivers bright living rooms, river-facing views and a sunny private garden. The open-plan sitting/dining room is filled with natural light and the adjoining kitchen offers straightforward scope to be opened up into a contemporary kitchen/diner. Offered chain free, the property suits buyers who want to personalise and add value.
The layout comprises two comfortable double bedrooms, a good single bedroom and a four-piece family bathroom with separate bath and shower. The house is small at around 660 sq ft and will benefit from updating throughout; the bathroom and kitchen are ready for renovation to meet modern standards. A single garage with service door and additional off-road parking add practical convenience.
Buyers should note important constraints: the property is in a high flood-risk area and recorded local crime levels are high, so sensible insurance and security considerations are necessary. It also sits within a small plot and requires renovation work — useful for buyers aiming to modernise rather than move straight in. Council Tax band E reflects above-average running costs.
Despite those issues, the location is a strong advantage. Rivermead Close is a short stroll from Romsey Abbey, shops, cafés and transport links to Southampton, Winchester and Salisbury. For families, several well-rated primary and secondary schools are nearby. For those prepared to refurbish, this home offers a rare, well-located opportunity to create a comfortable, contemporary house in a desirable market town.
