6 bed detached house for sale

Chilworth Road, Chilworth, Southampton SO16

Set within an expansive 2.15 acre plot, this detached property presents a rare opportunity for residential buyers, developers, and specialist operators alike. With significant scope for further development (subject to the necessary planning consents), this mature estate offers both immediate functionality and long term potential.

The main residence is a well proportioned four bedroom detached house, ideally suited for family living. Generously laid out, it features ample internal living space and a large double garage, which could serve as storage or be converted into further accommodation or ancillary space.

Notably, an outline planning application was previously granted under planning reference (10/01492/outs) for demolition of the garage, formation of a new driveway, and construction of an additional four-bedroom dwelling, highlighting the site’s development credentials. Having taken the advice from planning consultants, we understand this could be reinstated subject to a new application.

Complementing the main house is a detached, two-bedroom ancillary dwelling, constructed in 2022 under planning reference (22/01849/fulls). Thoughtfully designed and constructed by the current owners, this self-contained unit offers excellent flexibility, ideal for multi generational living, a guest house, or a potential rental space (subject to relevant permissions/change of use).

The generous grounds offer exceptional outdoor space, tennis court & mature gardens, ideal for those seeking a privacy within reach of nearby amenities. Whether for leisure, expansion, or redevelopment, the land holding affords significant potential. The Local Planning Authority is Test Valley Borough Council.

With its dual dwelling layout, development history, and extensive grounds, this property will appeal to a broad range of buyers, from private homeowners to residential developers, care providers, sen/education operators, and day nurseries. Opportunities like this, combining existing infrastructure, scale, and strategic potential are increasingly rare.

A viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the scale and possibilities on offer. For further information, please contact the sole selling agents, Rybull Group.
