4 bed link detached house for sale

Cecil Gardens, Locks Heath, Southampton SO31

Cecil Gardens is one of those homes that feels light and spacious once you’re through the door. Built in 2011, and tucked away in a small close in Sarisbury Green, it offers a layout that works well for family life, with a good balance of space and flexibility both inside and out.

The large entrance hall is immediately welcoming and the space flows well into a main living space currently set up as a lounge-diner with French doors to the garden. The kitchen has room for a table, and there's a separate utility room with door to the side of the home. There's an added bonus of an additional reception room that could be a playroom, home office or second sitting room depending on what you need, and a cloakroom completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, the house feels light and open, helped by a window on the landing. There are two double bedrooms with storage space, two good-sized single bedrooms, a family bathroom and an en suite, all decorated neutrally but offering you the opportunity to add your own stamp.

The garden has been set up to be optimise the sunlight, with a mix of patio and lawn, an extended seating area and a timber pergola that works well for both day-to-day use and when you’ve got people round. There’s also helpful side access.

To the front, there’s off-road parking for 2 vehicles, along with a garage with an electric door and EV charging point. The garage sits alongside a neighbouring one rather than directly attached to another house.

The location is a big part of the appeal, particularly for families. Brookfield Secondary School, Park Gate & Sarisbury Primary schools and the Locks Heath shopping centre are all a few minutes walk away.

Homes in closes like this, with this level of space and flexibility, don’t come up often
