Characterful two-bedroom end-terrace with garage and low-maintenance garden near the beach.
Victorian end-of-terrace on a corner plot
Set on a corner plot in Lee-on-the-Solent, this Victorian end-of-terrace offers a compact, comfortable home a short distance from the seafront. The house has two double bedrooms, two reception rooms plus a side study/family room, so it suits a small family, professionals or first-time buyers wanting extra living space rather than minimal accommodation. The detached one-and-a-half garage with power and lighting adds useful off-street parking and storage.
The ground floor feels welcoming with a warm living room centred on a cast-iron gas log burner and a dining room that opens towards a practical kitchen and side study. Upstairs are two well-proportioned double bedrooms and a bathroom; the master benefits from an ensuite shower area. The rear garden is low-maintenance and arranged for entertaining with Indian sandstone patio, artificial lawn and a decked seating area.
Built c.1900–1929, the property retains period character externally (bay window, chimney) but shows typical maintenance items for its age. Walls are cavity as-built with no known added insulation; glazing is double but install date is unknown. Buyers should factor potential improvements such as insulation and any modernising works if a higher energy performance is required. Council tax band B and very low local crime make running costs and living here favourable.
Location is a key draw: beaches, coastal walks and local shops are within easy reach, and nearby primary schools include two rated Good. The plot is modest and the house an average overall size (approx. 829 sq ft) — ideal if you want manageable outside space rather than a large garden. This is a practical, characterful home close to the coast with scope to update and personalise.
