2 bed flat for sale

Flat 7, Dorval House, Southampton, Hampshire SO15

Beautifully refreshed ground floor two-bedroom apartment featuring restored original parquet flooring, retained period details and leafy stream views. Spanning the building’s full depth, with communal gardens and permit parking, close to Southa

Positioned on Silverdale Road, close to Southampton city centre, this well-presented two-bedroom apartment combines generous accommodation, carefully restored original features and a leafy outlook. Spanning the full depth of the building, the property enjoys a pleasing sense of space, with unobstructed views towards trees and a stream bringing a welcome touch of greenery to this convenient city setting.

A particular highlight is the original parquet flooring, which has been sanded and restored throughout the property. Its natural grain and distinctive pattern add warmth and character, complemented by retained original thresholds and door frames. Fresh plasterwork and newly painted walls provide a crisp, neutral backdrop, allowing these period details to stand out and giving the interior a fresh, well-cared-for appearance.

The entrance hall connects the principal rooms, creating a practical layout with a comfortable separation between living and sleeping accommodation. The spacious sitting room offers ample scope for both lounge furniture and a dining area, making it equally suited to everyday relaxation and entertaining. A broad window draws in natural light, while the restored parquet flooring provides an attractive foundation for a variety of furnishing styles.

The separate kitchen is fitted with a range of light-coloured cabinets, contrasting work surfaces and tiled splashbacks. An eye-level oven, hob and extractor provide the main cooking facilities, while a window above the sink brings natural light into the workspace. Keeping the kitchen separate from the sitting room adds to the apartment's practical appeal.

Both bedrooms are comfortably double-sized, offering flexibility for couples, sharers or buyers who would like a generous guest room alongside space to work from home. Fresh decoration continues the calm presentation, while the apartment's outlook towards established trees and the stream adds to its appeal. The bathroom includes a bath with shower over, a wash basin and WC, with a window providing natural light and ventilation. Heating is provided by an electric system operating on Economy 7.

Outside, residents have use of a communal garden, offering space to enjoy the surroundings without the sole responsibility of maintaining a private garden. Established planting and trees soften the setting and provide a pleasant contrast to the nearby city streets. Permit parking is available at a vendor-advised cost of £60 per year, subject to the applicable permit conditions and availability.

The location is particularly convenient for enjoying Southampton's independent shops, cafes and restaurants. Bedford Place and London Road provide a varied choice of places for coffee, meals and everyday essentials, while the wider city centre offers more extensive shopping and leisure facilities. Westquay brings together major retailers, restaurants and a cinema, giving residents a broad choice of amenities within easy reach of home.

For entertainment and culture, the city's Cultural Quarter includes the Mayflower Theatre, Southampton's museums and galleries, and Guildhall Square. These complement the restaurants and social venues around Bedford Place, making the area well suited to buyers who enjoy having a range of activities nearby.

Green space is another attractive feature of the surrounding area. Southampton Common offers extensive open space, woodland paths and opportunities for walking, running and spending time outdoors. The city's Central Parks, including Watts Park and East Park, provide further landscaped surroundings closer to the shopping streets and cultural attractions. Together with the apartment's communal garden and leafy outlook, these spaces offer a balance between city convenience and access to the outdoors.

Educational facilities include Banister Primary School on Archers Road, with further primary and secondary provision across the surrounding city neighbourhoods. School places remain subject to the relevant admissions arrangements. Solent University's city-centre campus is conveniently accessible, while the University of Southampton's Highfield campus can also be reached from this part of the city, making the location practical for those working or studying at either institution.

Transport connections add to the appeal. Southampton Central station provides rail services towards London Waterloo, Winchester and Bournemouth, while bus services along the surrounding main roads connect with other parts of the city and university areas. Road routes lead towards the M3 and M27 for journeys across Hampshire and beyond.

With two proper double bedrooms, freshly finished interiors and an emphasis on preserving its original character, this apartment offers an appealing home close to the heart of Southampton. The restored parquet flooring and retained joinery give it individuality, while the generous layout, communal garden and outlook towards trees and water provide qualities that are especially welcome in such a central location.
