Set in a sought-after Southsea location within the Thomas Ellis Owen Conservation Area, this five-bedroom semi-detached house offers striking period character and generous living space across three floors. High ceilings, large bay windows and original fireplaces create bright, well-proportioned rooms that will suit a growing family seeking proximity to seafront amenities and good local schools.
The ground floor flows easily from a cosy bay-fronted lounge through a formal dining room into a conservatory and patio garden — a layout that works well for family life and entertaining. Practical features include off-street parking to the front and a low-maintenance paved rear garden with gated side access and sizeable shed.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations: the property sits on a small plot, the neighbourhood records higher-than-average crime, and the home is within a conservation area, which can limit external alterations. The house is presented in good decorative order but retains original cavity walls with no built-in insulation, so buyers may wish to budget for energy-efficiency upgrades.
Overall this is a rarely available period family home close to schools, shops and the seafront. It will suit purchasers who value character, generous room sizes and location, and who are willing to manage conservation-area restrictions and undertake modest modernisation for improved energy performance.
