We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Hamwic Independent Estate Agents offer for sale this well maintained yet notably dated 2 bedroom detached bungalow, conveniently positioned within a popular and accessible part of Southampton, ideally placed for Southampton General Hospital, the private Spire Hospital, major road links and bus routes.
Offered with spacious accommodation throughout, this detached bungalow will particularly appeal to buyers seeking a property that has been clearly cared for over the years, but now presents an excellent opportunity for cosmetic improvement and updating to suit modern tastes.
Unlike a full refurbishment project, the property is not considered neglected or run down, but it is dated in every aspect, providing a fantastic chance for purchasers to modernise at their own pace and unlock the full potential of the accommodation on offer.
The current layout comprises a side entrance hall serving all principal rooms, with 2 well proportioned front aspect bedrooms, a separate WC, bathroom, spacious rear aspect lounge, and a good size rear aspect kitchen leading through to a useful lean-to / rear porch area overlooking the garden.
Further benefits include double glazed windows, gas fired heating via a Baxi back boiler (currently disconnected and untested), off road parking, side pedestrian access, and useful under-property storage.
A key point for prospective buyers to note is that the rear garden is arranged on a steep downward tier and is not level, sitting significantly below the elevated position of the bungalow itself.
While the garden offers mature outside space and a pleasant outlook from the rear rooms, buyers should carefully consider the gradient and stepped access when assessing suitability for their needs.
Rear Garden The rear garden is a significant feature of the property and one that buyers should carefully consider.
The bungalow itself sits in an elevated position above the garden, with the rear outside space dropping steeply down below street level and therefore not being level.
Access is gained via concrete steps from the lean-to, as well as stepped access returning along the side of the property towards the front.
The garden is mainly laid to lawn with mature shrubs, enclosed by timber fencing, and offers a pleasant established feel.
While the outside space provides good overall size and a lovely elevated outlook from the rear rooms, the steep gradient and stepped access may not suit all purchasers, particularly those seeking low maintenance or level gardens.
Additional Outside Storage A useful practical feature is the storage area beneath the property, together with a sloped storage recess, providing additional external storage space which may prove useful for tools, garden items or general household overflow.
Construction / Utilities Construction: Brick Under Tiled Roof Utilities: Mains Water, Mains Electric Heating: Gas Fired Baxi Back Boiler Windows: Double Glazed Windows Council Tax Band: D Location - Tremona Road is a well placed Southampton location, particularly convenient for those needing quick access to Southampton General Hospital and the nearby private Spire Hospital, making this an attractive option for hospital staff, medical professionals, investors, or buyers wanting excellent access to major local employers.
The property is also well positioned for a wide range of everyday amenities, together with frequent bus services and excellent road links providing convenient access towards Southampton city centre, Shirley, the M27 and wider commuter routes.
This combination of accessibility, practical bungalow accommodation and detached status makes the property an increasingly rare opportunity within this price range.
