About
This spacious six-bedroom detached house on Westridge Road in Portswood offers an excellent opportunity for student living in one of Southampton's most popular university areas.
The property comes fully furnished and is available from July, making it ideal for the next academic year.
Accommodation comprises six bedrooms providing ample space for a larger student household, alongside two bathrooms to ease the morning routine.
The reception room offers a communal area for the group to relax and socialise between lectures. The detached layout ensures greater privacy and typically more living space than terraced alternatives.
Portswood is renowned for its student-friendly atmosphere and convenience, with a diverse range of shops, cafes, restaurants and takeaways along the main St Denys Road just a short walk away.
The location provides straightforward access to both the University of Southampton's Highfield Campus and Solent University, with regular bus services and cycling routes connecting to both sites.
Southampton Common is also within easy reach for recreation and green space.
This larger property format suits established friendship groups seeking a home together throughout their university studies.
With two full bathrooms serving six residents, the morning queue is significantly reduced compared to typical student houses.
The detached nature of the property also means fewer issues with adjoining neighbours. Early viewings are recommended for properties of this size in this sought-after student area
