1 bedroom ground floor maisonette for sale

Welcome To Oak Road! A bespoke split-level maisonette set within a unique grade two listed dwelling which originally served as the old Woolston library and is believed to date back to the early stages of the 19th century. In 2018 the property was restored and converted into something quite spectacular whilst retaining many of the original features. Upon approach to the property is a feature canopy with original library doors leading into the elegant communal hall. Once inside, you are welcomed by a generous open plan living area which boast 11ft ceilings, two large sash windows, restored Herringbone parquet flooring and a modern kitchen with built in appliances. Completing the ground floor is a modern cloakroom and stairs leading to the lower floor. The basement level comprises a 16ft bedroom with a walk in wardrobe and en-suite bathroom which has been designed with a rainfall style shower, recessed shelving and modern tiling from floor to ceiling. Added benefits include gas central heating, long lease, storage shed, council tax band A and no forward chain. 

Location The general character of Oak Road and 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 (0.4 miles), Superdrug and Boots (0.4 miles). Exceptional schools are nearby including the Woolston Infant School (0.4 miles), Ludlow Infant and Junior School (0.4 miles) and the St. Patricks Catholic School (0.2 miles) which has been rated 'Good' by Ofsted. Other local points include: Woolston Train Station (0.2 miles), local pubs including The Obelisk Pub (0.4 miles) and Yacht Tavern (0.6 miles), Peatree Green Nature Reserve (0.6 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.
