This ground-floor two-bedroom maisonette offers an affordable entry into Southampton with a private rear garden and a spacious lounge. The layout is straightforward and practical: two double bedrooms, a fitted kitchen, and a shower room. At around 700 sq ft, the space suits first-time buyers wanting manageable accommodation with outside space.
The property is leasehold with 86 years remaining; service charge is modest (£104) and ground rent low (£10). Council tax is very cheap and running costs are likely to be reasonable thanks to mains gas heating and existing double glazing. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal excellent — useful if you work from home or stream regularly.
The interior appears dated and will need cosmetic updating to suit modern tastes, so budget for redecoration and potential kitchen/bathroom upgrades. There may be additional leasehold-related fees for conveyancing packs. The surrounding area is a mixed neighbourhood with local amenities and easy access to the M27, but the wider area shows signs of deprivation and nearby schools have mixed Ofsted outcomes.
Overall this maisonette will appeal to first-time buyers wanting a low-cost starter home with garden space, or investors seeking a straightforward buy-to-let in a well-connected location. Viewings are recommended to assess condition and individual improvement costs.
