Searching for houses in Southampton, like much of the UK, can be quite a tricky task, especially with house prices almost continually on the rise.
You might wonder what some of the cheapest properties you can buy in the area are, excluding options such as shared ownership or retirement property.
If you’re looking for a property on the lower end of the price scale in Southampton, then Zoopla may have an option for you.
A three-bedroom terraced house on Gordon Terrace is on the market for a price of £225,000 and is described as “delightful”.

On its Zoopla profile, it says: “Introducing this delightful 3-bedroom mid-terrace house, brimming with character and charm.
“This property is a testament to its character and thoughtful design, making it a wonderful place to call home.”
Upon entering the property you’ll find yourself in a hallway with a staircase leading up to the first floor and the sitting room to the left.
The sitting room includes a feature fireplace “that adds warmth and character to the room” as well as a bay window “adorned with elegant white wooden shutters”.
Also on the ground floor is the dining room and the “galley-style” kitchen which has lots of natural light coming through thanks to a window that overlooks the garden.

Rick and Kathy Hilton have listed their longtime Hamptons home for $15 million.

The glitz and glamour of Paris Hilton’s world are hitting the real estate market, and it comes with a hefty price tag.
Nestled in the exclusive enclave of Southampton, New York, a lavish estate that has been a sanctuary for the Hilton family is now up for grabs for $14.95 million, according to the Wall Street Journal.
Owned by Paris’s parents, Rick and Kathy Hilton, this sprawling abode holds a special place in the family’s heart.
Rick, the scion of the Hilton Hotel empire founded by Conrad Hilton, and Kathy, a familiar face on reality TV’s “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” acquired the property in 1999 for $2.38 million.
Measuring a jaw-dropping 10,500 square feet with six bedrooms, this opulent residence, according to the Corcoran Group, promises the epitome of luxury living.
Memories of family gatherings and holidays have been woven into its fabric, including the fateful Thanksgiving in 2019 when Paris crossed paths with her now-husband, Carter Reum.
“The layout is perfect for comfortable living and entertaining, and we have countless happy memories there,” Rick Hilton told the Journal.
However, with the family’s relocation to Los Angeles in the 2000s, the Hamptons retreat has seen less of their presence, occasionally being offered for rent at a hefty six-figure price tag.
Situated on a sprawling 2.7-acre plot within a gated community, this 1990s-built residence boasts three woodburning fireplaces, high ceilings and timeless shingle-style architecture.
Updates in 2018 brought modernity to its kitchen, bathrooms and primary suite, the listing notes.
The grounds play host to a lagoon-style gunite swimming pool, an outdoor dining pavilion and numerous terraces for soaking in the sun.
Plus, the home offers deeded access to Fowlers Beach less than a mile away.
Jared Seligman of Corcoran holds the listing, but declined to comment on the listing.
The Southampton real estate market continues its upward trajectory, with median prices soaring to $1.61 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, according to Douglas Elliman.
