Accessed via a secure communal entrance with stairs to the first floor, the apartment opens into a welcoming hallway with useful storage. Neutral décor and well-maintained flooring create a light and airy feel throughout. The living room is spacious and bright, with a Juliet balcony overlooking the communal garden, which offers a pleasant outlook and space for both lounge and dining furniture. The kitchen is modern and practical, with high-gloss units, ample work surfaces, tiled splashbacks, a gas hob with an extractor, a built-in oven, an integrated fridge-freezer, and a slimline dishwasher. There is also space and plumbing for a washer/dryer, and the boiler is discreetly housed within the kitchen. 
Both bedrooms face the rear and are quiet. The principal bedroom benefits from an en suite shower room with a single shower, hand basin, WC and heated towel rail. The second bedroom is well-sized and ideal for guests, home working or study. The main bathroom features a panel-enclosed bath with shower over, tiled surround, wash hand basin, WC and heated towel rail.
Outside, residents enjoy off-road parking at the front and a well-maintained communal garden at the rear, mainly laid to lawn with established planting and a secure bicycle store, providing low-maintenance outdoor space. The location is a major draw. Opposite Southampton Common, residents have acres of green space for walking, running or relaxing. Local shops, cafes and amenities in Bassett with Portswood and Shirley close at hand. The University of Southampton Highfield Campus is within easy reach, making this a strong choice for academic staff, students or investors. Transport links are excellent, with bus routes to the city centre, Southampton Central railway station for mainline services, and easy access to the M3 and M27. Southampton city centre offers shopping, dining, cultural venues and leisure facilities, while local schools add further appeal for families or long-term buyers.
