About
A rare opportunity to purchase a four-bedroom detached bungalow in a highly sought-after non-estate location on St John’s Road, Locks Heath.
Built by the current owners in 1988, this unique home has been lovingly maintained, offering a wonderful opportunity to update and personalise a spacious and versatile property.
The accommodation is generously proportioned throughout, with three allocated double bedrooms and a fourth bedroom that would also make an ideal home office, study or additional reception space.
The principal bedroom benefits from its own ensuite shower room, while a separate family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.
There are two separate reception rooms comprising a comfortable lounge and dining room, alongside a standalone kitchen with access to a useful utility room.
While the property has been carefully maintained over the years, it now offers scope for modernisation, allowing a new owner to create a home tailored to their own requirements.
Externally, the property is accessed via secure gates leading onto a large block-paved driveway, providing excellent off-road parking and access to a detached double garage.
The garage features twin doors and useful storage above.
The rear garden is a particular feature, being private, level and well maintained, providing a pleasant outdoor space with considerable potential for further landscaping if required.
Situated within easy walking distance of Locks Heath Shopping Centre, residents have a wide range of amenities close at hand, including Waitrose, Iceland, independent coffee shops, eateries and a doctors' surgery.
The location also provides convenient access to the wider Locks Heath, Park Gate and Warsash areas.
Offered for sale with NO FORWARD CHAIN, this is a genuinely individual property that provides spacious accommodation, excellent parking and significant potential in a highly desirable residential location.
