This three-bedroom end-of-terrace in Southsea is offered vacant on a freehold basis and will be sold at online auction with a six-week completion. The property requires full refurbishment but retains period character such as a bay window, fireplace and traditional Victorian proportions. It includes an enclosed rear garden and a garage, on an average-sized plot close to local amenities and transport.
For investors the numbers are straightforward: estimated rents of £1,200–£1,300 pcm give a gross yield around 7.6–8.2% per annum depending on final refurbishment costs. The property’s vacant status and auction timetable make it a quick-acquisition opportunity for a buy-to-let refit or a light refurbishment and resale.
Buyers should note material issues clearly: the house needs comprehensive modernization throughout, both internally and externally. The double glazing install date is unknown and the heating is mains gas boiler with radiators; walls are filled cavity. Factor in refurbishment, possible services updates, and routine maintenance to reach rentable or sale condition.
Positioned close to Southsea town centre and Portsmouth & Southsea station, the location suits tenants or families seeking city amenities and transport links. Local schools vary in Ofsted performance, and overall area indicators show average deprivation and low crime. This is a practical project for investors or buyers prepared to renovate for income or long-term occupation.
