Coxford Drove, Southampton, SO16 5EZ

Hamwic Independent Estate Agents are delighted to offer for sale this well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached home, conveniently positioned within the established Coxford area of Southampton and particularly well placed for Southampton General Hospital and a wide range of everyday amenities.

An ideal first-time purchase or family home, the property offers a generous and versatile arrangement of accommodation. The ground floor features a spacious kitchen/dining room, separate lounge, additional playroom/home office, family bathroom and separate cloakroom, whilst a useful brick-built side outbuilding provides excellent utility, storage and workshop space.

Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a particularly generous principal bedroom spanning the front of the property. Outside, the property benefits from driveway parking and a landscaped, low-maintenance rear garden.

With double glazed windows, gas central heating and excellent access to shops, healthcare facilities and transport connections, this is a practical and appealing home in a particularly convenient Southampton location.

Ground Floor Accommodation
The property is set back from the road behind a low-level brick boundary wall. An opening to the side leads onto a brick-set driveway providing off-road parking, with a lawned front garden alongside.

Double timber gates provide access to the useful brick-built side outbuilding, whilst the main front door opens into the entrance hall.

The hallway provides a welcoming central introduction to the ground floor and benefits from two double glazed windows providing plenty of natural light. Further features include a smooth ceiling, laminate flooring and radiator, with stairs rising to the first floor. Doors provide independent access to the living room, kitchen/dining room, bathroom and separate cloakroom.

The living room provides a comfortable separate reception space with engineered wood-effect laminate flooring, smooth ceiling and radiator.

A fireplace surround with an existing open fireplace (not tested) creates a traditional focal point. Double internal doors at the rear open into the additional reception area.

This playroom/home office is a particularly useful addition to the accommodation and gives the ground floor excellent flexibility. It could equally work as a children's playroom, dedicated workspace, hobby room or snug depending on the requirements of the incoming purchaser.

The room continues with engineered wood-effect flooring and benefits from a smooth ceiling, whilst double glazed double doors open directly onto the rear garden and archway for return to the kitchen/dining room. 

The kitchen/dining room provides an excellent everyday family space with plenty of room to accommodate both cooking and dining areas.

Double glazed windows to the side and rear aspects introduce good natural light, whilst the dining section continues the engineered wood-effect flooring. The kitchen area is defined by practical tiled-effect laminate flooring.

The kitchen itself comprises a range of work surfaces with fitted base and eye-level cabinetry, inset sink unit, integrated gas hob and electric oven. There is space for a dishwasher, whilst the gas combination boiler is concealed within matching eye-level cabinetry. A radiator is fitted within the room and a door provides direct access into the adjoining outbuilding/utility area.

Also positioned off the entrance hall is the ground floor family bathroom, finished with fully tiled walls and flooring. The suite comprises a corner enclosed bath with mixer shower and curtain above together with a wash hand basin. Further features include a heated towel rail, double glazed front aspect window and smooth ceiling with recessed downlighting.

Conveniently positioned opposite is the separate cloakroom, comprising a low-level WC. The room is complemented by tiled walls and flooring, radiator, smooth ceiling and double glazed front aspect window.

Side Outbuilding / Utility Area
A particularly practical feature of the property is the brick-built side outbuilding, which provides considerably more functionality than conventional garden storage.

The space benefits from power and lighting and currently provides room and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, together with space for a fridge/freezer.

Double timber stable-style doors provide access from the front, whilst a double glazed sliding door opens onto the rear garden.

Its size and arrangement create excellent flexibility as a utility area, workshop, bicycle storage or general family storage space, helping to keep larger appliances and everyday items away from the main living accommodation.

First Floor Accommodation
Carpeted stairs rise to the first floor landing, which benefits from a double glazed side aspect window providing natural light. Doors lead to all three bedrooms.

All bedrooms are finished with smooth ceilings, engineered laminate flooring, radiators and double glazed windows.

Bedroom One is an impressive principal bedroom positioned at the front and extending across the width of the property.

Two double glazed front aspect windows, a built-in wardrobe and additional storage cupboard positioned above the stairs provide valuable storage without compromising significantly on floor space.

Bedroom Two is a good-sized double room positioned at the rear and overlooks the garden. The loft hatch is located within this bedroom, with the loft itself benefiting from a pull-down ladder, fitted lighting and partial boarding for storage.

Bedroom Three is also positioned at the rear and provides a practical single bedroom. Its proportions would equally lend themselves to use as a nursery, child's room or dedicated home office if required.

Outside
The rear garden has been landscaped to provide an attractive yet relatively low-maintenance outdoor space.

Immediately adjoining the house is a brick-set patio extending across the base and side of the property, providing an excellent position for outdoor furniture, barbecues and entertaining.

Beyond the patio is a raised lawned garden, creating a clearly defined area for children, pets or general recreation.

The garden is enclosed by timber fencing to one side and brick-built walls to the opposing side and rear boundaries, creating a defined and established feel.

An outside water tap is also fitted, whilst direct access into the side outbuilding adds further practicality.
