Private rear garden with modest plot size
Off-road parking accessed at the rear — rare for location
New acoustic double glazing and recent re-plastering
Currently let at £1,350pcm (approx. 6.75% gross yield)

Located close to Shirley High Street and Southampton General Hospital
Local area: higher crime and wider deprivation indicators
Set on popular Winchester Road in Shirley, this Victorian mid-terrace combines period character with immediate rental income and scope for cosmetic uplift. The house offers three large double bedrooms across two storeys, a versatile front room currently used as a fourth bedroom, and a generous kitchen-dining area opening onto a private rear garden.
Recent works include new acoustic double glazing and internal re-plastering, giving buyers a solid base to refresh finishes or improve energy performance. The property is freehold, extends to about 975 sq ft, has mains gas central heating, and sits in postcode SO16 6UL — walking distance to Shirley High Street and close to Southampton General Hospital.
Currently let at £1,350 pcm, the home yields roughly 6.75% gross, and tenants are willing to remain or vacate to suit a buyer. Practical benefits include private off-street parking at the rear and a ground-floor shower room; there is no flooding risk.
Notable considerations: the area shows higher crime levels and wider deprivation indicators, and the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, which, along with an EPC rating of D, suggests further energy improvements may be needed. The plot is modest in size and the house, while freshly replastered, will benefit from cosmetic modernisation to maximise value or rental income.
