A compact three-bedroom semi in Bassett offering an affordable entry to Southampton homeownership. The house has practical, modern upgrades—double glazing, gas central heating and owned solar panels—that help keep running costs down. The rear garden is a manageable, paved space with side access and a useful log cabin currently set up as a home office.
Internally the layout is straightforward: lounge/diner, fitted kitchen, ground-floor shower room and three first-floor bedrooms. At about 679 sq ft the rooms are modest, so the property suits buyers looking for an economical starter home or a downsizer who values low-maintenance outdoor space and a dedicated workspace.
Transport and amenities are strong nearby assets: short walks to Southampton University, good bus routes, quick access to the M27/M3 and local schools including highly rated secondaries. Council tax is low and broadband/mobile connectivity are both good, which helps with remote working.
Set in a neighbourhood classified as very deprived, the area may present social and environmental challenges that affect resale and amenity expectations. The house dates from the 1930s–1940s and, while it appears well maintained, prospective buyers should commission their own surveys and checks on services, electrical installation dates, roof and structural condition before committing.
