This three-bedroom mid-terraced house on Freshwater Road offers practical family living on a modest footprint. The ground floor includes a lounge, modern kitchen, downstairs bathroom and a conservatory that opens onto a low-maintenance rear garden with side access. Off-street parking to the front is a useful rarity on similar streets. The home is freehold and benefits from double glazing and gas central heating.
The property suits buyers looking to move straight in with some cosmetic updating or those seeking a refurbishment project to add value. At around 732 sq ft the accommodation is compact; bedroom three is small and storage is limited. The exterior appears sound but an internal inspection and full survey are advised to confirm condition and any necessary repairs.
Location strengths include several nearby primary and secondary schools with good Ofsted ratings, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, making the house practical for family life and remote working. Note the wider area is classified as deprived with above-average crime rates; buyers should factor local area characteristics into their decision.
Offered at £250,000, this property will suit first-time buyers, buy-to-let investors or families seeking affordable access to Portsmouth with potential to improve value through updating. The clear positives (parking, garden, modern kitchen) sit alongside material considerations (small overall size, local area deprivation), so a viewing and survey are recommended to judge fit for purpose.
