Spacious period family home with bespoke kitchen, large garden and direct Common access.
Approaching one-third of an acre plot backing onto The Common
An imposing four-bedroom Tudor Revival detached home set on a level plot approaching a third of an acre, directly backing onto the woodland of The Common. The house combines period detail — high ceilings, stripped floorboards, ornate fireplaces and decorative coving — with a beautifully refitted, bespoke kitchen and newly renovated bathrooms, creating a comfortable family home of exceptional proportions.
Living space is generous and versatile: three principal reception rooms, a lounge with a corner bay, a formal dining/family room and a large loft room with plumbing already installed for an en-suite. The impressive principal bedroom includes a balcony overlooking the westerly rear garden and a luxurious en-suite. Outside, a full-width paved terrace, loggia and mature lawn provide private outdoor space and a pedestrian gate gives direct access to The Common.
Practical strengths include off-street parking for several cars, recent reconfiguration works (including a converted garage now used as a snug), and strong mobile and broadband connectivity. The location is very convenient for the city centre, university campus, Southampton General Hospital and local shopping and leisure amenities.
Considerations: the property sits within a conservation area, which may restrict external alterations. The loft room is currently unfinished and will need completing to create a further bedroom or en-suite. Council tax is noted as quite expensive. Despite being newly renovated, buyers should check specific finish details and any planning constraints before committing.
