Chain-free and offered freehold, this three-bedroom mid-terrace provides an affordable entry into Sholing for first-time buyers or investors. The layout includes two reception rooms, a conservatory and a small rear garden — a practical family footprint with scope to reconfigure and modernise.
The property dates from the 1970s and requires some renovation throughout; buyers should expect cosmetic works and updating of services. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the frame is timber with partial insulation, so improving insulation and replacing heating could be costed into plans.
Set on a quiet street with good transport links to the M27 and nearby railway, the location offers convenience to local shops, schools and green spaces. There is no off-street parking, the plot is small and the surrounding area shows higher crime and local deprivation indicators—factors to consider for families and landlords alike.
Overall this is an economical, workable home for someone ready to invest time and budget to modernise. The chain-free status and manageable size make it especially suitable as a first home or a buy-to-let with potential to increase value after refurbishment.
