From a riverside flat to a three-bedroom home, here are three properties you can buy for the same or similar price in the city.

One-bedroom flat - £244,950

Spitfire Lodge, Belmont Road, Southampton

This first-floor flat in the heart of Portswood is in a prominent location, close to a variety of amenities.

Natural light is the focal point of this property, with an open plan design and two windows overlooking the communal gardens.

It has one double bedroom, a three piece shower room and "spacious" private hallway which boasts a touch screen entrance phone. 

A parking space is available on a first come first served basis and a bicycle/motability scooter store is provided.

One bedroom flat - £249,950

Moorhead Court, Channel Way, Southampton 

Situated on the riverside, this one double bedroom ground floor flat has a "liberally sized" lounge/dining room which benefits from access into the courtyard-style garden.

The master bedroom is located to the rear of the building and benefits from views of the River Itchen. 

The flat also has a well-maintained original kitchen.

Ideally located from the city centre, this property will give you access to the hustle and bustle of the city, for a little bit more than the average home price.

The property features a fitted kitchen in good condition, and a separate lounge and dining room.
