Set within one of the grand original Victorian villas on the former home of Southampton University New College, this elegant two-bedroom character apartment offers a rare blend of timeless charm and modern convenience. Located on Archer’s Road, the property enjoys a highly desirable position close to Southampton Common, Bedford Place, and all Central Southampton’s excellent amenities. With readily available transport links, it is an accessible choice for both owner-occupiers and rental investors alike.

This detached villa is one of the most iconic buildings in the area, with immense curb appeal and a striking pillared entrance. A secure communal door leads into the building, with stairs rising to the first floor where the apartment is located. Stepping inside, a bright and spacious hallway welcomes you, setting the tone for the light-filled interiors throughout.

To the left, the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area immediately impresses. With high ceilings and a large bay window flood the room with natural light, while offering ample space for both dining and lounge furnishings. The kitchen is neatly positioned in the corner, fitted with gloss cream units, contrasting work surfaces, integrated appliances, and finished with modern downlighters.

Both bedrooms are generously proportioned and well-positioned within the apartment. The principal bedroom features a built-in wardrobe, and a dual aspect, enhancing the sense of space and light. Serving the apartment is a modern bathroom, fitted with a bath with shower and screen, pedestal wash basin, WC, and tiled wet areas.

Additional benefits include gas central heating, beautifully maintained communal gardens for residents to enjoy, and the all-important allocated off-road parking.

This is a truly special home that combines period elegance with modern living, all within one of Southampton’s most convenient and desirable locations.
