2 bed semi-detached house for sale

Mayfield Road, Southampton SO17

** For Sale By Online Auction** Pre Auction Offers Considered**

Available with no forward chain, this semi-detached home offers scope for further improvement and could provide development potential, subject to the necessary planning approvals. Currently comprising a lounge/diner, separate kitchen, lean-to, two first-floor bedrooms, and a partially converted garage, the property offers further potential for enhancement. Due to high levels of interest, appointment slots are pre-booked, and you will need to contact us to register interest.

The Interior -
The entrance hall provides stairs to the first floor, and a door opens to the lounge, which has views to the front aspect. The kitchen is located in the middle of the home and offers a range of eye- and base-level units. A sliding door opens to a lean-to, set with a polycarbonate roof, a storage cupboard (which could be converted), and additional high-gloss eye- and base-level units, with a door to the rear garden.

The first floor offers two bedrooms; the master is an oversized room, and we believe the front of the property originally accommodated two bedrooms. There is an over-stairs storage cupboard housing the boiler. Bedroom two is to the rear and is a well-proportioned room. The upstairs also accommodates a bathroom, which could benefit from updating.

The garage to the side was originally accessed via a walkway from the kitchen; this has now been blocked off, and access is situated on the other side of the garage. The partial conversion has not been completed to building regulations, and no planning permission has been granted. Every buyer should take this into consideration when making an offer. The conversion does include plumbing and houses a shower room, as well as a kitchenette, with the majority of the space used as a living area. A door leads through to a small courtyard area.

The Exterior -
To the front of the property is a driveway with ample space for parking, alongside a small area of garden. To the rear, the garden is block paved and includes a small wooden outbuilding, currently used as a summer house.

Living in Mayfield Road -
Mayfield Road is a well-connected residential street in Southampton, located within walking distance of the University of Southampton, making it convenient for staff, students, and professionals. The area offers strong rental demand, particularly from the university community, giving properties good letting potential. Residents benefit from easy access to the city centre, local shops, and green spaces, as well as reliable transport links, including nearby bus routes and train stations.

There is a discrepancy in floorspace, as the EPC does not include the garage, which is not considered habitable. Please measure the property yourself to ensure accuracy.
