Westerly garden, garage and workable layout near schools and shops.
Chain-free freehold with driveway and detached garage
Set on a decent plot in a popular Portchester street, this extended 1950s semi offers straightforward single-storey living and scope to modernise. The long lounge/diner opens to a westerly rear garden, while a separate kitchen, utility, cloakroom and garage give flexible, practical space. Three bedrooms and a walk-in bath make the layout well suited to downsizers seeking one-level convenience or a family wanting easy access to local schools.
The bungalow is chain-free and sold freehold, so a quick move is possible. Notable positives include driveway parking, a detached garage, a covered rear seating area and excellent local connectivity — bus stops, shops and good primary/secondary schools are nearby. The property is in a very affluent area with fast broadband and strong mobile signal.
Requires modernisation throughout: fittings, finishes and some services are dated and will need updating to current standards. The home still has period character (bay window, brick fireplace) that will reward sympathetic refurbishment. Buyers should factor in renovation costs and the gas fireplace with back boiler when planning improvement works.
Overall this is a practical, mid-century bungalow with clear potential for value uplift through refurbishment. It suits a buyer wanting single-level convenience, a ready-to-adapt layout and outside space with westerly sun in the afternoons.
