A three-bedroom end-of-terrace home in Millbrook, offered chain free and sold freehold. The house provides flexible living with a generous living room, separate dining area and a ground-floor office room. A useful adjoining storage/annexe space includes an ensuite, useful for guests or multi-generational living.
Practical features include a low-maintenance rear garden, double glazing, and proximity to Newlands Primary School and local shops. Commuters are well served with a nearby bus stop and easy road access to the M27; central Southampton amenities are also close by.
The property was constructed in the 1980s and retains a traditional layout but needs updating throughout — the interior and external landscaping are dated. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be costly compared with gas central heating, and the EPC is band D. The house sits in a very deprived, high-crime neighbourhood, which prospective buyers should factor into their decision.
This home will suit buyers seeking a value purchase to renovate, families wanting nearby schools, or investors looking for rental potential after improvement works. Chain-free sale simplifies a quicker move, but expect refurbishment and potential running-cost upgrades.
