Set over two main floors with a two-storey bay, this Victorian mid-terrace offers 1,688 sq ft of family space in a sought Southsea location near Albert Road shops, Canoe Lake and the seafront. The layout includes four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a large kitchen/diner, conservatory and separate reception rooms — a straightforward canvas for a growing household.
The property is offered chain-free but requires internal updating and modernisation; cosmetic and systems work will be needed to bring the house up to contemporary standards. Practical details: double glazing fitted before 2002, cavity walls presumed uninsulated, mains gas boiler and radiators, EPC shown as D. The small rear garden and forecourt are low-maintenance but offer limited outdoor space and no off-street parking.
This home suits a family wanting space and period character who are prepared to invest time and budget to refurbish. High local amenities, good primary and secondary schools and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity are strong local advantages. Note the area records higher crime and relative deprivation; buyers should consider security and renovation costs when assessing value.
Viewed as a renovation project, the house has clear potential to increase in value once modernised, particularly given the central Southsea position and proximity to the seafront. Early viewings recommended for buyers seeking a period property with flexible layout and scope for improvement.
