Locks Road, Locks Heath, Southampton
£465,000

The most amazing penthouse property in what is often recognised as Locks Heath’s premier purpose-built apartment development. Paxton Court is a gated development of just four small detached three story pods each housing a small collection of large individual apartments. This is all set out in a generous well-tended attractive plot with well planted communal grounds. This stunning home has accommodation of nearly 1400 sq.ft; originally configured with a two bedroom layout, but with rooms so generously sized it has been cleverly re-configured to now provide three doubles. The new layout opens a next level of versatility, with the ability to use one of the bedrooms as a home office, or hobby room. Situated on the second floor of this small pod of just five apartments and being the only residence on the top floor, it is like living in a detached bungalow, there is lift to all floors. Being a Kebbell Homes development, the specification and robust nature of the construction was well ahead of its time. Our clients, the current owners have been in ownership for over ten years and have improved the already high specification and maintained the accommodation in truly immaculate style. Specification highlights include but are not limited to, a luxuriously appointed kitchen with granite worksurfaces and a complete suite of quality integrated appliances, well-appointed bathrooms with the re-fitted ensuite enjoying a bath and separate shower, high-performance double-glazed windows, many fitted with plantation shutters, there are literally too many features to mention. Unusually for an apartment it benefits from gas fired central heating with radiators. Everything about this home is large but if more space particularly for storage, there is a gargantuan loft space, accessed from there different points throughout the apartment. The quiet set back from the road location is a most convenient one, with a short stroll up Locks Road, you will reach the excellent and ever popular Locks Heath Centre featuring a handy Waitrose supermarket, along with many other facilities. There is allocated parking along with a generous supply of visitors’ space. Being set behind secure entrance gates with intercom entry, this would make an ideal ‘lock up and leave’ property for the frequent traveller. It would also suit a professional occupant who wanted somewhere secure and quiet to work from home, or to unwind and relax after a hard day’s work. Being a unique property with the only three-bedroom layout on the development this is truly a rare opportunity. Our clients are already suited and can offer a chain free transaction, appointments to view can be made through this office on 01489 570019.
