Summary - 5 SOMERSET TERRACE FREEMANTLE SOUTHAMPTON SO15 3FW
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Characterful renovated home with private garden, moments from Southampton Central station.
Victorian mid-terrace with bay window and period features
This newly renovated Victorian mid-terrace blends period charm with fresh, modern decoration. Two double bedrooms and a four-piece family bathroom sit over a comfortable 751 sq ft layout, making the house a practical first home or city base. The living room’s bay window, stripped floorboards and traditional fireplace retain character, while the rear dining room leads to a well-fitted kitchen and a private, beautifully kept garden — a rare quiet outside space so close to the city centre.
Positioned on a quiet no-through road in Freemantle, the property is a short walk to Southampton Central station, Shirley High Street and West Quay shopping, plus local schools rated Good. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support home working; mains gas boiler and radiators provide conventional heating. The freehold tenure and modest council tax band keep running costs attractive for first-time buyers.
Be candid about limitations: the plot is small and the mid-terrace footprint is average-sized, so outdoor space and room proportions are modest. The wider area shows signs of deprivation and local crime is average; buyers should consider neighbourhood suitability. Walls are cavity-built with assumed no insulation, so buyers may wish to budget for any future energy-efficiency improvements despite the recent internal modernisation.
Overall this is a characterful, move-in-ready home that offers convenience, period features and an easy-to-maintain garden. It will particularly suit first-time buyers or city commuters seeking a centrally placed, freehold property with immediate habitation and scope for gradual improvement.
