Balaclava Road, Bitterne Village, Southampton, Hampshire SO18

Situated in the heart of Bitterne Village, this charming and well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached home offers generous and versatile living space, combining modern living with the character of a quaint village setting. Having remained in the same family for an impressive 55 years, this is a truly rare opportunity to acquire a much-loved home that has been thoughtfully cared for and maintained throughout the years.

Upon entering, you are welcomed by an inviting hallway that leads through to a spacious front dining room. A beautiful bay window allows natural light to pour in, creating a bright yet cosy atmosphere. To the rear, the well-appointed kitchen provides a range of wall and base units complemented by ample worktop space. A French door opens directly onto the sunny, south-facing garden, offering a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.

A second reception room, currently arranged as a comfortable living room, provides an ideal place to relax and unwind, and flows effortlessly into the conservatory. This delightful additional space enjoys pleasant views of the garden and benefits from double doors opening onto the patio, enhancing the sense of light and space. A modern ground-floor W/C completes the downstairs accommodation.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three well-proportioned bedrooms, each featuring built-in wardrobes. These are served by a stylish and spacious family shower room, finished to a high standard, along with the added convenience of a separate W/C.

Externally, the rear garden is a standout feature - enjoying a sunny aspect and clearly reflecting years of attentive care. It offers a patio area ideal for relaxing or socialising, a neatly maintained lawn, and an array of mature fruit trees including cherry, apple, and pear, adding both character and seasonal interest. A substantial storage shed further enhances the practicality of the space.

To the front, the property benefits from off-road parking, a well-kept lawned area, and a single garage with power, providing excellent storage or workshop potential.
