Description
Set within a quiet residential cul-de-sac in the popular Lordswood area, this well-proportioned one-bedroom first-floor maisonette offers an excellent combination of space, privacy and outside amenity.
Entrance Hall
The property has its own private entrance at ground-floor level, with a useful entrance hall and stairs rising to the first-floor accommodation.
Living & Dining Room
4.54m x 4.00m
A generous and flexible living space with room for both seating and dining furniture. A large double-glazed window brings in plenty of natural light and enjoys a pleasant outlook across the surrounding green space and mature trees. There is also useful built-in storage located over the stairs.
Kitchen
3.94m x 1.88m
The separate kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units with work surfaces over. Features include a sink and drainer, electric double oven, gas hob with extractor above, plumbing for a washing machine, space for additional appliances and further fitted storage.
Double Bedroom
3.18m x 3.12m
A good-size double bedroom benefiting from fitted wardrobes, providing useful built-in storage while still leaving ample space for additional bedroom furniture.
Bathroom
2.02m x 1.88m
Fitted with a modern three-piece suite comprising a panelled bath with shower over, wash hand basin and WC, together with tiled finishes and an extractor fan.
Private Rear Garden
One of the property's key features is its own private rear garden. Predominantly laid to lawn with established planting and space for outdoor seating, it provides a genuine private outside area, which is a particularly valuable benefit for a one-bedroom maisonette.
Garage & Parking
A single garage in a nearby block provides useful storage or parking, while the seller has also confirmed allocated parking.
Location
The property is conveniently located for a range of local shops and amenities, including Sainsbury's, while Southampton General Hospital, Southampton Sports Centre and the municipal golf course are all within easy reach. There are also good road connections towards Southampton city centre, the M271 and M27.
Summary
With its spacious accommodation, private entrance, garden, garage, parking and very long lease, this would make an excellent first purchase, low-maintenance home or alternative to a conventional apartment.
