Description

Hamwic Independent Estate Agents are pleased to offer for sale this three bedroom terraced house, conveniently positioned within the popular Lordshill area of Southampton. Offered with vacant possession and no forward chain, this property presents an excellent opportunity for first time buyers, investors, or buyers looking for a home they can improve over time. While the property is habitable and benefits from double glazed windows, gas central heating, off road parking, and a dual aspect lounge-dining room, it is fair to say that the property would benefit from refurbishment and general updating throughout, which is reflected within the asking price.

Front Aspect & Entrance

The property is approached via an open-plan frontage with a hardstanding area providing useful off road parking, together with a lawned section to the side. A pathway leads to the main front entrance door, opening into the entrance hallway.

The entrance hall provides access to the main ground floor accommodation and benefits from laminate flooring, radiator, stairs rising to the first floor, and doors leading through to the lounge-dining room, kitchen, and separate cloakroom. The cloakroom, is a practical addition to the ground floor, fitted with a low level WC and wash hand basin. Further benefits include a front aspect window, radiator, and laminate flooring.

Lounge-Dining Room
Running from front to rear, the lounge-dining room is a good size and offers a dual aspect arrangement. The room features a front aspect window and sliding patio doors opening onto the rear garden, making it a versatile main reception space with clear areas for both lounge and dining furniture. Additional features include laminate flooring and two radiators.

Kitchen
Positioned to the rear of the property, the kitchen offers a functional layout and provides direct access towards the rear garden via a personal door leading into a rear lobby area, with a further door opening outside. Fitted with work surfaces incorporating units and drawers to the base level, matching eye level cupboards, and a sink unit, the kitchen also offers space and plumbing for a washing machine and dishwasher. Additional features include an integrated electric hob and oven, radiator, laminate flooring, window to the rear aspect, and a useful understairs storage area.

Whilst perfectly usable in its current form, the kitchen offers clear scope for a buyer to modernise and personalise to their own taste.
 
First Floor Accommodation
The first floor landing provides access to all three bedrooms, the bathroom, a useful storage cupboard, and loft access.

Bedroom One - A good size double bedroom with window, radiator, and laminate flooring.

Bedroom Two - Another well proportioned bedroom with window, radiator, and laminate flooring.

Bedroom Three - A practical single bedroom, ideal as a child’s room, home office, or nursery, with window, radiator, and laminate flooring.

Bathroom - The bathroom is fitted with a white suite comprising a P-shaped bath with electric shower and fitted glass shower screen over, low level WC, and wash hand basin. Finished with part tiled walls, tiled flooring, heated towel rail, and an obscure glazed rear aspect window.

Rear Garden 
The rear garden is designed for ease of maintenance and offers a good degree of practicality. A decked seating area extends from the rear of the property and continues along the side, leading to a covered pergola seating area positioned in the rear corner. The remainder of the garden is laid mainly to gravel and enclosed by timber fencing. Further benefits include an outside tap and a particularly useful spacious storage area, ideal for tools, bikes, or general household storage.

Buyer Notes
This is a property that will likely appeal to buyers who are happy to take on some updating works in exchange for securing a competitively priced home in a convenient location. The house is habitable as it stands, but cosmetic improvement and refurbishment should be budgeted for. For first time buyers wanting to get onto the ladder, or investors looking for a project with strong rental appeal once improved, this represents a sensible and realistic opportunity.

Location - Orion Close is conveniently situated within the established Lordshill area of Southampton, offering excellent access to a wide range of everyday amenities. Nearby buyers will benefit from local shopping facilities, supermarkets, doctors surgery, pharmacy, regular bus routes, and easy access to major road links including routes in and out of Southampton, making it a practical location for commuters and day-to-day family life alike. The area remains popular with both owner occupiers and landlords due to its accessibility, local conveniences, and continued demand for affordable housing.
