This three-bedroom Victorian terrace on Munster Road blends period character with everyday practicality. High ceilings, a large bay window and original mouldings give the living space charm, while the open-plan ground floor and generous kitchen open to a substantial enclosed garden — rare for central Portsmouth.
The house is freehold and offered at an accessible price point for first-time buyers or investors. Gas central heating and double-glazed windows (installed before 2002) provide basic thermal comfort, and the property’s 1,184 sq ft layout includes three well-proportioned bedrooms and a modern bathroom upstairs.
Restoration and improvement potential is a key selling point. The home requires modernisation throughout: walls are assumed to have no insulation, windows are older double glazing, and some updating will be needed to maximise energy efficiency and modern living standards. The plot is small at the front with a low-maintenance forecourt but benefits from a larger rear garden for family use or extension (subject to planning).
Located centrally in PO2, the property sits close to schools (several good-rated), shops and frequent bus routes to the city centre and rail links. The local area is relatively deprived and crime levels are average — factors prospective buyers should weigh alongside the strong convenience and rental demand in the area.
