Description

Hamwic Independent Estate Agents are delighted to offer for sale this well presented and deceptively spacious two double bedroom second floor flat, ideally positioned within the convenient and well-connected Maybush area of Southampton.

This attractive home presents an excellent opportunity for first time buyers, those looking to step onto the property ladder, or investors seeking a well-balanced and easy-to-maintain property in a popular residential location. Offering generous room proportions throughout, the property benefits from a bright lounge with direct access onto a private balcony, a modern fitted kitchen, two genuine double bedrooms, gas central heating and double glazed windows.

The accommodation is approached via a secure communal entrance with security entry system, leading through to the private front door and welcoming entrance hallway. The hallway offers a practical first impression with carpeted flooring, radiator, and access through to all principal rooms.

The lounge is a particularly appealing main living space and offers a bright and comfortable setting for both everyday living and entertaining. A double glazed window and door allow for excellent natural light, while direct access onto the balcony provides a lovely additional feature, ideal for enjoying some outdoor space, morning coffee or simply allowing the room to feel even more open and airy.

The kitchen is fitted with a good range of base and eye level units, together with work surface space ideal for day-to-day use. There is a single drainer sink unit, built-in cooker/oven, space and plumbing for a washing machine, and further space for a fridge/freezer. Finished with vinyl flooring, part tiled surrounds and a double glazed window, this is a practical and functional kitchen well suited to modern living.

Both bedrooms are excellent doubles, making this property especially appealing when compared to many similar apartments in the area. Bedroom one offers a comfortable principal bedroom with double glazed window, radiator and fitted carpet. Bedroom two is another generous double room and benefits from a useful built-in storage cupboard which houses the refitted gas boiler, providing both practicality and efficient use of space.

The bathroom is fitted with an enclosed bath with shower fitted above and curtain rail, low level WC, wash hand basin, part tiled walls, vinyl flooring, an obscure double glazed window, and the added benefit of a separate storage cupboard.

Overall, this is a fantastic opportunity to purchase a well presented, sensibly priced first home in a highly convenient Southampton location, offering spacious accommodation, sensible ongoing costs, and excellent access to local amenities and transport links.
