A freshly decorated three-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace in Southsea, offered chain free and with an existing HMO licence. The house has been updated recently — including a boiler installed about two years ago — and benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and a modern fitted kitchen. Its location near Fawcett Road and Albert Road places shops, cafés and regular bus routes within easy walking distance; Fratton station is also close by.
The layout is traditional with a front lounge, separate dining room, fitted kitchen and a single family bathroom off the rear. Upstairs are three double bedrooms; overall accommodation totals about 960 sq ft. A fully enclosed rear garden and small patio provide private outdoor space. The property has been treated for rising damp previously.
Practical points for buyers: the mid-terrace sits on a small plot with standard ceiling heights and average-sized rooms — good for tenants or compact family living but limited if you need large outdoor space. Cavity walls are shown as originally built with assumed no added insulation, so further energy upgrades may be beneficial. Local crime levels are above average; factor this into rental pricing or insurance.
This house suits investors seeking an HMO-ready Southsea asset or buyers wanting a centrally located, move-in-ready period home with scope for energy improvements. It’s presented neutrally and ready to view immediately.
