Description

Nestled in the heart of the highly sought-after village of West End, to the north of the city of Southampton. A rarely available and beautifully presented home.  Blacksmith's Cottage offers a unique opportunity to own a charming character home of local history. Formerly a traditional blacksmith's smithy, the property has been tastefully modernised and extended over the years, blending character with contemporary living. Set within attractive and well-maintained gardens, the cottage boasts a large garage, generous off-road parking, and a stylish interior . This exceptional cottage combines charm and character with practical features, comprising a 17" sitting room, a dining room, a lovely fitted kitchen, with three bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor. A truly special find within West End's village centre.
West End is a popular and well-established village located on the north-eastern outskirts of Southampton, offering a perfect balance of semi-rural charm and convenient access to city amenities. The village benefits from a strong sense of community and a wide range of local facilities, including independent shops, a supermarket, cosy pubs, cafés, and a post office. Families are well served by a selection of highly regarded primary and secondary schools, while nearby Hatch Grange Park provides beautiful open spaces, woodland walks, and outdoor activities for all ages. West End is also home to the Ageas Bowl - Hampshire's iconic international cricket ground - which hosts sporting events, concerts, and a hotel with a spa and gym. Excellent transport links include easy access to the M27 and M3 motorways, regular bus services, and nearby train stations at Hedge End and Southampton Airport Parkway, making it ideal for commuters and those looking to explore the wider Hampshire area.
