This two-bedroom semi-detached house on Old Road offers straightforward, low-maintenance living with useful practical features. The layout includes a spacious lounge with French doors to a small paved garden, a fitted kitchen with integrated oven and hob, and a first-floor bathroom. PVCu double glazing and gas central heating are fitted throughout, and there is a PVCu side porch providing useful boot-room space.
Outside, the property benefits from a rear pedestrian gate to an off-street parking space and a compact garden with patio and artificial turf — easy to manage for a first-time buyer or landlord. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, making the home suitable for remote working and everyday connectivity. Council tax is described as cheap, helping keep running costs down.
Important practical points: the area has high crime levels, very high deprivation and a medium flooding risk; these factors can affect insurance, security needs, resale and tenant demand. The home was constructed in the early 1990s and has double glazing installed before 2002; interested buyers should check the condition of the glazing, roof, services and the boiler. Agents’ notes state fixtures, fittings and services have not been tested — undertake your own inspections and surveys.
This property suits a first-time buyer seeking an affordable entry into homeownership or an investor wanting a low-maintenance let in Gosport. Nearby primary schools are rated Good and there are larger independent schools within reach, adding family appeal. Expect a modest-sized home with scope for cosmetic updating rather than major structural works.
