3 bed terraced house for sale

Winchester Road, Southampton SO16

Located on the popular Winchester Road in the heart of Shirley, Southampton, this spacious three-bedroom Victorian terrace offers a rare combination of character, flexibility, and location. Whether you’re looking for a family home to grow into or a solid rental investment, this property presents a compelling opportunity.

Behind its classic brick façade lies a generously proportioned home with a welcoming sense of space. To the front, the original lounge has been repurposed as a fourth bedroom, highlighting the versatility of the layout for either investors or multi-generational households. To the rear, a good sized kitchen area flows into a dedicated dining area — the social heart of the home — with access to the garden. A modern ground-floor shower room completes the ground level.

Upstairs, you’ll find three spacious double bedrooms, each offering excellent natural light and comfortable proportions, along with a handy upstairs cloakroom. The home has benefited from upgrades in recent years, including new acoustic double glazing and internal re-plastering, providing a solid foundation for further cosmetic improvement or modernisation.

Currently let at £1,350 per calendar month, the property delivers a strong gross rental yield of approximately 6.75%, making it an attractive proposition for investors. The current tenants are happy to remain in situ, or can vacate subject to notice, giving flexibility to the incoming buyer.

Outside, the rear garden is a lovely size — perfect for family use or further landscaping — and there’s the added benefit of private off-road parking accessible at the rear, a premium feature in this location.

The home is situated just a short walk from Shirley High Street with its excellent range of local shops, cafes and services. Southampton General Hospital is within easy reach, making this a popular area for medical professionals and hospital staff. The city centre is around two miles away, offering extensive shopping, entertainment and transport links including Southampton Central station, with direct trains to London Waterloo.

Southampton’s position also offers fantastic road connections via the M27 and M3, and neighbouring towns such as Eastleigh (6 miles), Winchester (13 miles), Portsmouth (20 miles), and Bournemouth (30 miles) are all within easy reach.
