About
Welcome to Victoria Road! Nestled in the heart of Woolston Village, this charming split-level maisonette dates back to the 1800s and is steeped in history.
Perfectly positioned on the bustling High Street, it offers convenient access to Woolston Train Station, shops, and local amenities.
Thought to be amongst the oldest buildings in Woolston, this character-filled property boasts a rich heritage and is offered for sale with a complete forward chain.
The interior has been tastefully restored and thoughtfully upgraded, blending modern comforts with timeless charm.
The home features two points of entry, including a welcoming front entrance on the High Street, which leads to a bright white shaker-style kitchen with ample space for a dining table and chairs.
Ascending to the first floor, you'll find a sophisticated lounge highlighted by an elegant bay window and a cosy log-burning fireplace.
The landing leads to the principal bedroom, which includes built-in wardrobes and an exquisite modern wet room with stylish tiling.
Completing the home is a generous loft room measuring 15'3" (with restricted head height), offering versatile space for storage or additional use.
The property's striking façade showcases a beautiful original arched porch and a feature window keystone, exuding period character.
The front garden is thoughtfully landscaped with shingle and bordered by new fencing. At the rear, a dropped kerb provides access to private off-road parking via Thornycroft Avenue.
Location The general character of Victoria Road and Woolston is suburban with traces of the former rural settlement that gave it its special character in the past.
Developed from a small rural settlement into substantial residential suburb, Woolston now benefits from an outstanding selection of local shops, amenities and cafés including a Lidl Supermarket (495 ft), Superdrug and Boots (0.2 miles).
Exceptional schools are nearby including the Woolston Infant School (0.3 miles) and St. Patricks Catholic School (0.2 miles) which has been rated 'Good' by Ofsted.
Other local points include: Woolston Train Station (0.4 miles), The Obelisk pub (0.5 miles), Centenary Quay Plaza (0.2 miles), Southampton Sailing Club (0.4 miles) and although you can spend most days relaxing by the river and basking in the tranquil setting, the fast-paced city of Southampton is just a stone's throw away.
A short journey across the Itchen Bridge will take you to Southampton City Centre where you can enjoy a hearty meal in a traditional English pub or treat yourself to some fine dining in a Michelin star restaurant in Ocean Village, Southampton City Centre, the new Cultural Quarter and Oxford Street.
