This spacious four-bedroom detached home in High Oaks Close sits on a large plot in a quiet Locks Heath cul-de-sac, offering roomy family living across approximately 1,411 sq ft. The ground floor includes a sizable lounge/dining room, kitchen, conservatory and downstairs WC, while the first floor provides four double bedrooms (three with fitted wardrobes), an ensuite to the master and a family bathroom. The property is chain free and sold freehold, with an integral garage and driveway parking.
Location is a strong selling point: walking distance to Locks Heath Centre with shops and Waitrose, close to several Good-rated primary and secondary schools, and sensible commutes to Southampton and Portsmouth. The area is very affluent with low crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — practical for modern family life and home working.
The house dates from the 1980s and is well maintained but shows period features that may suit a buyer wanting to personalise: conservatory, brick fireplace and likely original or older fittings. Double glazing is present though installation date is unknown; cavity walls are assumed insulated. Council tax is above average for the area, and one nearby secondary school (The Henry Cort Community College) currently has an Ofsted rating of Requires Improvement, which may concern some buyers.
Overall this is a roomy, practical family home with a large garden and garage on a desirable road. It will particularly suit families seeking space and local amenities, or buyers looking to refresh 1980s interiors to add modern value.
