Agent’s Comments
Homes like this don’t come along very often. From the moment you arrive, there’s a real sense of space, character and quality that only becomes more impressive as you move through the house. The rear extension is genuinely special flooded with natural light and designed perfectly for modern family living while the garden is on a scale that’s rarely found in this location. It’s a home that works just as well for everyday life as it does for entertaining, with flexibility both inside and out. Combine that with excellent transport links, strong local schools and a brilliant community feel, and you have a property that truly stands out from the crowd. One that needs to be seen to be fully appreciated.

Location
Perfectly positioned just moments from Bitterne Train Station & Triangle, this home enjoys exceptional connectivity without sacrificing lifestyle. Bitterne Train Station provides direct access into Southampton City Centre, with onward routes reaching London Waterloo in under an hour and a half ideal for commuters. For outdoor lovers, Riverside Park is close by and offers scenic walks along the River Itchen, play parks, wide open green spaces and the perfect setting for family time or dog walks throughout the seasons. Within walking distance, The Triangle adds real lifestyle appeal, home to a thriving mix of independent businesses including standout Caribbean cuisine, a stylish cocktail bar ideal for date nights, a popular microbrewery, convenience stores and takeaways. A Tesco Express also sits conveniently on the route home for effortless evening stops.  Road, bus and rail links provide easy access across the city, while the M27 motorway and Southampton Airport are just a short drive away. Families will also appreciate proximity to Bitterne Manor Primary School, a well-regarded, community-led school with one class per year, feeding into the equally respected Bitterne Park Secondary School.

The Property
From the front, the home immediately impresses with its double-height bay window, period detailing and crisp white sash contrasts against warm orange brickwork. A driveway provides parking for two vehicles, complete with an EV charging point, while gated side access leads to the rear garden. A tiled pathway guides you through a charming storm porch with a feature archway a practical and stylish welcome during the winter months. Inside, the entrance hall sets the tone with exposed varnished floorboards, high skirting boards, skimmed walls and a striking staircase finished with a runner carpet. To the right sits the first reception room a cosy lounge centred around a working log burner, framed by beautiful architrave detailing and a bay window fitted with plantation shutters, which will remain with the property. 

Further along the hall is the second reception room, currently used as a home office but equally suited as a formal dining room, playroom or snug thanks to its generous proportions and bay window aspect. At the rear, the real showstopper unfolds a stunning open-plan kitchen, living and dining space with vaulted gable ceilings, bi-fold doors and multiple roof windows creating an exceptional sense of light and space. Underfloor heating runs throughout the tiled flooring, complemented by sleek matt dark grey kitchen units, double chest-height ovens, a gas hob, dishwasher and fridge freezer which are all remaining. The space currently accommodates a 6–8 seater dining table, with scope to reconfigure for a central island if desired. A separate office area benefits from natural side light, while the adjoining utility room incorporates a WC and additional side access can be found just outside perfect for muddy boots or paws after winter walks.

Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms await, three of which are doubles. The principal bedroom spans the width of the house and features floor-to-ceiling fitted wardrobes, additional storage and a stylish en-suite finished with brick-slip tiling, rainfall and traditional shower options, heated towel rail, vanity unit and WC. A modern family bathroom services the remaining bedrooms. Neutral décor throughout allows immediate enjoyment with scope to personalise over time.

The Grounds
Stepping out through the bi-fold doors, you’re greeted by a raised decked area ideal for entertaining, leading down to a block-paved pathway framed by landscaped, manicured borders. A generous central lawn draws you through the garden towards a large storage shed and the dedicated Tipsy Cow bar, creating a fantastic social focal point. The garden wraps around to the side and rear, forming an impressive L-shaped plot a rare and valuable feature. Flat, expansive and immaculately maintained, the space offers endless potential: a future garden room, a football pitch, additional entertaining zones or simply room to enjoy. For many, this is the kind of garden that justifies the dream purchase of a ride-on mower.
