This mid-20th-century mid-terrace townhouse offers flexible three-storey living in central Southsea, with a self-contained studio on the ground floor ideal for short‑let income, guests or multi‑generational use. The property includes a garage with electric up-and-over door, a generous driveway for up to three cars, a west-facing balcony and a paved rear garden with pedestrian access.
The first floor provides the main living areas with a bright lounge opening onto the balcony, a separate dining room and a fitted kitchen. The top floor houses three well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom; the master benefits from fitted wardrobes. Double glazing and gas central heating are already in place.
Practical considerations are clear: the house sits on a small plot and was constructed in the late 1970s/early 1980s, so buyers should expect typical mid‑period maintenance and potential updates to decor or systems over time. There is a medium flooding risk for the area and local crime levels are higher than average, which may affect insurance and security costs.
This home suits buyers seeking a central Southsea location with strong letting potential or families wanting flexible accommodation close to shops, schools and the seafront. For investors, the existing short‑let history demonstrates income possibility; for owner‑occupiers, the studio offers private living or rental flexibility.
