Summary - 195 OAKWOOD DRIVE LORDSWOOD SOUTHAMPTON SO16 8EL
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Contemporary three-bedroom terrace near Southampton General — compact, chain free, and investment-friendly..
Three bedrooms; two doubles and one single ideal for nursery or study
Set on a quiet, leafy street in Lordswood, this mid‑century three‑bed terrace is presented in a contemporary style and suits a growing family or investor seeking reliable rental income. The ground floor offers an open-plan sitting/dining room with a feature fireplace and a modern kitchen that opens to a low‑maintenance rear garden. Upstairs are two double bedrooms, a smaller third bedroom ideal for a nursery or home office, and a fully tiled family bathroom.
Practical details strengthen the appeal: freehold tenure, chain free sale, double glazing and gas central heating via a boiler and radiators. The property is compact at about 621 sq ft, but the layout feels efficient and the garage and driveway in the block immediately behind provide off‑street parking — a notable asset in this area. EPC rating C and council tax band C are also pragmatic benefits.
Location is a major draw: close to Southampton General Hospital, local schools (including Oakwood Primary and the highly regarded Cantell School), supermarkets and good transport links into the city and motorway connections. The house has recently been let and would likely achieve around £1,400 pcm, making it of clear interest to buy‑to‑let purchasers as well as first‑time buyers wanting a manageable family home.
Buyers should note the property’s modest total floor area and small plot size; rooms are compact compared with larger family houses. The rear garden and some external areas would benefit from landscaping to maximise outdoor enjoyment. There is one bathroom only, which may be a consideration for larger families. Overall this is a well‑presented, practical home in a sought‑after residential pocket.
