Situated in one of the most requested roads within the Upper Shirley district of Southampton, this period family home offers a wealth of character and through thoughtful extension now provides a versatile and spacious family home. The property retains a host of period features to include ornate coving, deep skirting boards, feature fireplaces and sash windows. The ground floor accommodation is impressive and offers sitting room, separate family room and undoubtedly one of the property's stand out features which is a 27' 7" kitchen/dining room, leading directly to the rear garden.
On the first floor can be found three double bedrooms as well as a shower room and separate bathroom and on the second floor can be found a further double bedroom as well as a large landing which could be used for home office use and access to extensive eaves storage. Externally, the property has the advantage of neatly tended gardens, an attached garage as well as a particularly pretty walled rear garden with neatly tended lawns and established plantings. Due to the combination of features and enduringly popular location, the earliest of viewings are recommended.
