Summary - 40, Honeysuckle Road SO16 3HQ
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Close to university, garden and parking — ideal first purchase with updating potential.
Three bedrooms and one contemporary shower room
This three-bedroom semi-detached home, built c.1900–1929, offers practical family accommodation close to Southampton University Highfield Campus. The ground floor features a bright open-plan lounge and dining area with patio doors leading to a landscaped rear garden, plus a galley kitchen and under-stair storage. Off-street parking and a driveway with dropped kerb add everyday convenience.
Upstairs there are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a contemporary shower room served by mains gas central heating and double glazing (install date unknown). The garden is a clear asset: central lawn, decking for al fresco dining, border planting, lighting and a storage shed. Broadband is fast and mobile signal is excellent, useful for remote working or students.
The house has been cared for but will benefit from updating in parts to match modern standards — some fixtures and finishes are mid-20th-century and the property is described as needing modernisation. The plot is small and the area scores as relatively deprived; local amenities and several well-rated schools are nearby, and council tax is low. No flood risk is recorded.
This home suits first-time buyers or small families seeking a practical, well-located property with renovation potential and a pleasant garden. Buyers should allow budget for cosmetic updating and consider the surrounding area context when viewing.
