Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; council tax is described as cheap and broadband and mobile signal are strong — practical for modern household needs. The nearby schools include several Good-rated primaries and an Outstanding secondary, which supports family buyers.

EPC rating D is middling and no major flooding risk is reported.
Overall this is a straightforward, no-chain purchase with parking and garden — a sensible purchase for someone seeking value entry to Portsmouth or a rental asset. Consider budgeting for cosmetic updating or targeted improvements to boost energy performance and appeal.
