Methuen Street, Southampton, SO14

The property 

An excellent opportunity to acquire a two-bedroom terraced house offering spacious accommodation, a good-sized garden and plenty of scope for improvement. Although the property requires refurbishment and cosmetic updating throughout and extending SSTP, it benefits from a light and airy feel, good room proportions and a practical layout. The property would suit a buyer looking for a home they can modernise and personalise, as well as an investor or developer seeking a property with potential. On entering the property, you are greeted by a particularly spacious open-plan living and dining room. The generous proportions provide plenty of flexibility for both comfortable seating and dining areas, while the natural light helps create a bright and welcoming space. To the dining side of the room there is direct access to the rear garden, providing a useful connection between the living accommodation and outside space. The galley-style kitchen is located to the rear of the property and offers a practical layout with scope for updating and reconfiguration, subject to the necessary requirements. The bathroom is situated beyond the kitchen and benefits from its own access to the rear garden, providing an unusual but potentially useful feature and offering scope for consideration as part of any future refurbishment. Upstairs, the property provides two well-proportioned double bedrooms. Both rooms offer good space for double beds and additional furniture and, like the rest of the property, would benefit primarily from cosmetic improvement and modernisation. The bedrooms are light and provide comfortable accommodation once updated.

While the property is in need of work throughout, the majority of the requirement is cosmetic, with significant potential to improve the presentation and overall feel of the accommodation. The existing layout provides a good starting point for refurbishment, while the property's natural light, spacious living area, two double bedrooms and garden make this a property with considerable potential.

The garden

Outside, the property benefits from a reasonably sized rear garden, offering a useful area for outdoor seating, entertaining or family use. The garden also provides plenty of scope for landscaping and improvement to create an attractive outdoor space.
