Set on a quiet Southsea street, this substantial five-bedroom Victorian semi offers generous room proportions, high ceilings and classic bay windows. The layout includes two kitchens and three bathrooms across three storeys, giving genuine scope for multi-generational living or a self-contained lower-ground flat for rental income. A private, low-maintenance rear garden and a walled courtyard provide outdoor space plus rare off-street parking for the area.
Period features such as ornate coving, a bay-fronted living room and fireplaces bring character while modern fittings in the main kitchen and lower-ground kitchen/utility add everyday convenience. The property’s size (approx. 2,702 sqft) and flexible rooms suit families who need separate reception spaces, or investors targeting HMO/letting or a duplex conversion (subject to consents).
Buyers should note material considerations: the EPC is E and the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so energy efficiency improvements are likely to be needed. The plot is small and council tax is above average. The area sees above-average crime levels compared with the city, though local amenities, transport links, good mobile/broadband and several well-rated schools are nearby. Overall this is a versatile period home with clear potential for value-led improvement or income generation.
