Welcome to Fort Road! A truly sensational 1900s two bedroom semi-detached house which is located close to seaside walks, shops and amenities. Built circa 1900, this Victorian home was designed to be spacious and comfortable, with grand proportions and high ceilings. When it comes to relaxing indoors, perhaps the most impressive room in this beautiful home is the grand sitting room which features a stunning cast iron fireplace, original coving and large bay window. Further in is a 'Galley' style kitchen complete with an abundance of storage. Adjoining the kitchen is a formal dining room perfect for entertaining guests. On the first floor, the master bedroom suite is impressive. Offering ample room for a king-size bed and wardrobes. There is a large bay window that floods the room with natural sunlight. There is a further double bedroom with built in wardrobe, a landing area with loft access and a generous four piece bathroom suite comprising a separate shower, oval bath and bespoke wash basin. Outside has been designed with entertaining in mind; the garden has been exquisitely landscaped to provide a fantastic area for gatherings, entertaining and more importantly, Al Fresco dining. The entertaining areas in the garden flow from the french doors in the kitchen opening onto a patio seating area which offers ample room for outdoor furniture where you can enjoy outdoor dining and drinks on a warm, summer evening whilst enjoying a good degree of privacy. There is a generous area of lawn and a raised decked area aswell as side pedestrian access. To the front there is a shingled area with a brick border.
Location The general character of Fort 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 (0.4 miles), Greggs Outlet (0.3 miles), Superdrug and Boots (0.3 miles). Exceptional schools are nearby including the Woolston Infant School (0.4 miles), Ludlow Infant and Junior School (0.4 miles) and the St. Patricks Catholic School (0.1 miles) which has been rated 'Good' by Ofsted. Other local points include: Woolston Train Station (0.2 miles), local pubs including The Obelisk Pub (0.5 miles) and Yacht Tavern (0.6 miles), Peatree Green Nature Reserve (0.5 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.
