A well-presented Victorian terrace in central Shirley, this three-bedroom home is arranged over two storeys and ready for immediate occupation. The ground floor offers a bay-front sitting room and a modern kitchen-dining area with integrated dishwasher, electric oven and gas hob — a practical layout for everyday living and social cooking. The private rear garden is generous for the area and well suited to children and pets.
Tenure is leasehold with 874 years remaining, so long lease security is in place. The property is an attractive option for first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors seeking a low-maintenance home close to Shirley High Street, the city centre and the main railway station. Local amenities, parks and good bus links add to the convenience.
Buyers should note a few material considerations: the neighbourhood records very high crime levels and the wider area is relatively deprived, which may affect resale or rental premiums. The house has one family bathroom only and on-street parking rather than a private drive. There is a previously treated small area of rising damp by the back door reported with no recurrence, but any purchase should verify this with a survey.
Overall this compact Victorian terrace offers good-sized living spaces, modern kitchen fittings and long lease security — a sensible, well-located starter home or rental addition if you are comfortable with the local area profile.
