This three-bedroom semi-detached house on Havenstone Way offers practical, commuter-friendly living in Swaythling. The property includes a lounge/diner, one upstairs bathroom, a single garage and off-road parking — useful for a first home or a rental let. Chain-free sale and decent plot size add to the buying convenience.
The location is a major asset: close to Swaythling station with regular services to Southampton Central and direct links north and to London, plus easy access to the M27 and M3. Local amenities include shops, cafés, pubs and bus links, and several well-rated primary and secondary schools are within reach, which helps both families and lettings demand.
The house dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and has double glazing fitted after 2002 and mains gas central heating. However it is effectively a renovation/fixer-upper: cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, and the property will benefit from modernisation and potential insulation upgrades. There is a high local flood risk and crime levels are above average for the area — important practical considerations for buyers and landlords.
Overall, this is a straightforward, affordable freehold suitable for first-time buyers who want to add value, or investors seeking a commuter-focused rental. Viewings are recommended for anyone wanting a home with scope to improve in a convenient Southampton location.
