Morris Dibben says ..

A licensed house of multiple occupation (HMO) located in the sought-after Portswood area, ideal for Southampton University Student and professional sharers alike. It has been successfully let to sharers for over two decades, and is currently let for the 2024/25 academic year for £16,200.

Property Oracle says ..

This four-bedroom terraced house in Portswood, Southampton, presents a mixed bag of opportunities and challenges for potential buyers. The property’s location is a clear strength, being relatively close to Southampton University and local amenities. The proximity to several schools adds further appeal to families. The transport links to the city centre are also convenient, adding to its desirability. However, the property’s condition presents a significant consideration. Images reveal a property in need of renovation, with outdated bathrooms and kitchens. Visible dirt and potential damp issues suggest potential maintenance costs beyond a simple cosmetic update. The small, overgrown garden offers minimal outdoor space. The asking price of £275,000 reflects the average for similar properties in the area. However, the significant renovation required suggests it might be slightly above what a buyer would pay after factoring in renovation costs. Overall, the property’s strengths and weaknesses create a complex picture, making due diligence and realistic budgeting essential for prospective buyers.

Therefore, we give this property 4 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
