Welcome to Obelisk Road! This exceptionally spacious three/four-bedroom semi-detached house in Woolston has so much to offer, from a self-contained annex and off-road parking for multiple vehicles to a beautifully landscaped garden and three bathrooms. This traditional Victorian home, built circa 1900, was designed to be both spacious and comfortable, with grand proportions and an enhanced sense of space and light. Inside, the property is rich in original charm and history, approached via an elegant entrance hall with an adjoining cloakroom. There is a stunning kitchen/diner crafted with care and attention, featuring shaker units, a range cooker, and skylight windows. Further in, a 16'11" family room boasts bi-folding doors, two skylight windows, and luxury flooring. Completing the ground floor is a versatile space that could serve as an annex or be incorporated into additional living space. This area includes a lounge with high ceilings, a feature bay window, and original coving, as well as a kitchenette area with its own entrance door and a cosy bedroom with an en-suite shower room.
On the first floor, there are three spacious double bedrooms, including an impressive master bedroom with an en-suite featuring a corner shower cubicle, low-level WC, and vanity wash basin. Bedroom three is currently used as a study. The modern family bathroom is fitted with a ‘P’-shaped bath, floor-to-ceiling tiling, and an airing cupboard. The landing area includes a staircase leading to the loft room, which has space for a bed and ample eaves storage.
To the rear, the property features an exceptional garden designed for entertaining and low maintenance. A large patio area provides ample space for outdoor furniture, while an artificial lawn is bordered by mature shrubs. There is also a decked area to the side of the garden. Completing the rear garden is a brick-built outhouse, which offers numerous conversion possibilities. At the front, a generous resin driveway accommodates multiple vehicles.
Location The general character of Obelisk Road and Old 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 (0.5 miles), Greggs Outlet (0.5 miles), Superdrug and Boots (0.6 miles). Exceptional schools are nearby including the Woolston Infant School (0.2 miles), Weston Park Primary School (0.8 miles) and the St. Patricks Catholic School (0.5 miles) which has been rated 'Good' by Ofsted. Other local points include: Sholing Train Station (0.3 miles), Southampton Sailing Club (0.7 miles), The Obelisk Pub (0.1 miles), Archery Grounds (0.2 miles), Weston Shore (0.7 miles), Mayfield Park (0.6 miles), Westwood Nature Reserve (1.1 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.
