Summary - Bitterne! No Forward Chain! Check Out The Garden! SO19 7AD
2 bed 1 bath Detached Bungalow
Spacious private garden and two double bedrooms ideal for family living.
No onward chain — ready for a quick sale
This detached two-double-bedroom bungalow on Merridale Road is offered chain-free and sits on a notably large, private westerly garden — a rare feature in this part of Bitterne. The layout is traditional and practical: a bay-front lounge and master bedroom to the front, a dual-aspect kitchen/diner at the rear, and a bright second bedroom overlooking the garden. Off-street parking and a neat front garden add kerb appeal.
The rear plot is the property’s strongest asset: an extensive, well-established lawn, mature shrubs and trees, a pond and fenced boundaries provide privacy and a sunny, sheltered outdoor space ideal for family life, gardening or future extension (subject to consents). Inside, the kitchen/diner is sociable and light but shows mid-century fittings and will benefit from modernization to unlock full value.
Practical points to note: the home is cavity-wall construction with no confirmed insulation and the cottage-style wet room replaces a traditional bathroom; services and appliances have not been tested. The bungalow was built in the 1950s–60s and some updating to heating, electrics or decor may be needed depending on buyer plans. Council Tax Band C and freehold tenure are helpful for running costs and ownership security.
For families or downsizers seeking a single-storey house with a rare, private garden and room to improve, this property offers clear potential. A viewing is recommended to appreciate the plot, layout and scope for straightforward refurbishment or garden-focused lifestyle changes.
