None, SO17

Offered for sale with no forward chain for a smooth and efficient transaction, this highly sought-after 'Collins' style family home comes to the market for the first time in thirty years. This charming four-bedroom property is nestled within the prestigious Uplands Estate conservation area, a highly popular residential neighbourhood renowned for its character architecture and its exceptional proximity to the University of Southampton campus, reputable local schooling and the extensive shopping facilities of nearby Portswood Broadway.

The property has been lovingly maintained over three decades and benefits from a brand-new heating boiler fitted in 2024, ensuring modern efficiency alongside its classic appeal.

The living space opens with a welcoming central hallway that includes a convenient downstairs cloakroom. Positioned to the left of the hall is a bright, dual-aspect sitting room, which serves as an ideal space for relaxing and entertaining. French doors from the sitting room open directly onto the garden terrace, seamlessly connecting the indoor space with the outside. On the right side of the hallway, a separate formal dining room enjoys a pleasant outlook over the front garden and features a connecting door that leads directly into the kitchen and breakfast room.

The kitchen and breakfast room provides ample space for a morning table and chairs, exuding traditional character through a range of antique pine wall and base units, a ceramic butler sink and an ornate dresser in the dining area. At the heart of the kitchen is a classic gas-fired AGA. A large window and a secure door provide attractive views of and direct access to the rear grounds.

Upstairs, the first-floor landing features a hatch leading to a generous loft space. Four well-proportioned bedrooms offer excellent versatility for a growing family or a home workspace and all are served by a central family bathroom with a separate, adjacent cloakroom WC.

To the front of the house is a neat, easily managed garden bordered by mature yew hedging, with a paved pathway leading to the front door and a gated side passageway providing secure access to the rear. Parking is conveniently catered for on the street via a local residents' permit scheme.

The rear garden is a standout feature of the home, enjoying a coveted, sun-drenched southerly aspect. Predominantly laid to lawn with a highly private rear outlook, the outdoor space features a patio terrace complete with a timber pergola adorned with a mature, flowering wisteria. Tucked away toward the rear boundary are three practical storage sheds and a charming timber summerhouse, offering excellent external storage and fantastic versatility for a hobbyist.
