3 bed detached house for sale

Abbeyfields Close, Netley Abbey, Southampton SO31

Set within the ever-popular and beautifully tucked away Abbeyfields Close in Netley Abbey, this impressive family home offers generous and flexible accommodation, a superb driveway, a partially converted garage, a sunny rear garden and a layout that works brilliantly for modern family living. The frontage immediately sets the tone, with a large block-paved driveway providing comfortable off-road parking for up to four vehicles. The property also benefits from a garage, which has been cleverly partitioned to create both a useful utility area and a separate storage section to the front, making it ideal for busy households needing practical space without compromising on convenience. Upon entering the home, you are welcomed by a convenient entrance hall. To the left-hand side is a handy downstairs cloakroom, finished in a bright white suite and naturally lit by an obscure window, with an additional downlight creating a fresh and practical space. Towards the rear of the entrance hall, there is a useful storage area, perfect for coats, shoes and everyday outerwear.

The main living room is positioned towards the front of the home and offers an impressive amount of space, with plenty of natural light creating a warm and welcoming feel. To the rear, there is a second reception room, currently arranged as a bedroom, but previously used as a dining room. This gives the property excellent flexibility and would work equally well as a formal dining space, home office, playroom, guest room or snug. Adjacent to this is the larger open-plan kitchen/dining space, a brilliant everyday family area with plenty of storage and worktop space. The kitchen features hardwood cabinetry, quartz-style worktops, a Bosch oven, built-in high-level microwave, gas hob, integrated dishwasher and space for a large American-style fridge freezer. There is also a clever dedicated wine storage feature, adding character and practicality. The boiler is neatly housed within the kitchen cabinetry and is a Potterton Promax he, which has been serviced annually. The kitchen also provides side access, which is particularly useful for families, pet owners and day-to-day garden access.

One of the standout spaces within the home is the rear conservatory/orangery-style extension. With a glazed roof, double glazing, hard flooring and direct access into the garden, this is a beautiful additional living space that connects the home perfectly with the outdoors. It is an ideal spot for morning coffee, relaxed family time, entertaining or simply enjoying views over the garden throughout the year. The rear garden has been beautifully cared for and enjoys a sunny aspect. It wraps around to the left-hand side, providing access back towards the side of the property and creating a practical yet attractive outdoor space. It is well suited to families, pets, summer entertaining and those who want a manageable but enjoyable garden.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three well-proportioned bedrooms, all of which can comfortably accommodate double beds along with additional bedroom furniture. Bedroom two benefits from a fitted wardrobe positioned neatly in the rear corner. The family bathroom is modern in style and features a vanity unit with storage, bath with shower over, and a Mira electric shower. The main bedroom is positioned to the rear of the property and runs the length of the house, creating an excellent principal suite. This room benefits from a built-in wardrobe and its own private en-suite shower room, complete with a corner shower cubicle offering both rainfall and traditional shower options.

The garage has been partially converted and is now divided into two highly useful sections. The rear section has been transformed into a practical utility space with full electrics, making it ideal for laundry appliances and additional household storage. A further door then leads into the front garage storage area, perfect for bikes, tools, sports equipment and seasonal items. The loft is insulated and benefits from lighting, although there is currently no fitted ladder. The home has been well maintained by the current owners, who have lived here for 11 years. A new pump tank has been installed in the loft, and all blinds can remain as part of the sale.

Location
Netley Abbey has long been loved for its village feel, waterside setting and access to some of the area’s most attractive outdoor spaces. The village is positioned close to Abbey Hall and the beachfront, where green open space, coastal walks and views towards Southampton Water create a wonderful lifestyle setting. From here, you can enjoy the beach route leading all the way through to Royal Victoria Country Park, one of the area’s most popular destinations for year-round walks, picnics, family days out, dog walks and outdoor activities. It is a location that gives you a genuine mix of village living, coastal scenery and practical day-to-day convenience. The area has continued to grow in popularity with families, helped by access to Netley Abbey Infant School, Netley Abbey Junior School and nearby secondary schooling including The Hamble School. Local amenities are also excellent, with Tesco Bursledon Superstore close by, now acting as a strong local hub with a supermarket, café, Greggs, barbers, PizzaExpress and further useful facilities.

Abbeyfields Close itself is one of those locations that people often wait for. Tucked away in its own peaceful, scenic setting, it offers a quiet close environment while remaining close to local schools, shops, transport links, countryside, waterfront walks and everyday amenities.
