This three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Bitterne, Southampton, presents a mixed bag of prospects. Located in a family-friendly area with good access to local schools, shops and transport links, its location offers significant appeal. The proximity to Moorlands Primary School, rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted, is particularly positive for families. Bitterne train station provides convenient access to Southampton Central and beyond. However, this positive aspect is countered by the property’s condition. The property is habitable but clearly requires updating and refurbishment. The images reveal dated décor, and while not in disrepair, it’s clear that potential buyers would need to budget for renovations, including new flooring, redecoration, and possible bathroom and kitchen improvements. The small garden offers some outdoor space but is presently somewhat overgrown. At £260,000, the price reflects the market value in Bitterne for this property type, but the required investment in modernisation might make it a less financially attractive prospect compared to other properties in the area that are in better condition. Overall, the property offers a blend of advantages and disadvantages, presenting an opportunity for buyers willing to undertake renovations and willing to settle for a small garden. The lack of square footage information for the property and most nearby listings makes a precise price-per-square-foot comparison difficult, hindering a more precise assessment of the price’s reasonableness. However, one nearby property with available square footage (5 Bramble Mews) sold for significantly less, which may support the view that the current listing price is somewhat on the higher end, given the property’s condition.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
