A compact Victorian terraced home in central Southsea, offered chain free with an enclosed private rear garden and on-street resident permit parking. The property is presented as a practical, low-maintenance option for someone seeking a manageable house in a well-connected urban location.
This house is being promoted through a Lifetime Lease option for buyers aged 60+ (Home for Life). The illustrative Lifetime Lease price shown is £155,500 (based on an average 33% saving); the full market price is £235,000. The plan lets eligible purchasers buy a percentage share of the property (up to 50%) to protect future value; actual price varies with age and circumstances.
Internally the accommodation is modest — two bedrooms, lounge, dining room and small kitchen — suited to downsizers or retirees wanting a central Southsea base. Built before 1900 with double glazing and gas central heating to radiators, the house may need some modernisation; cavity walls are assumed to lack insulation. Outside space is limited but private, with a small rear garden and brick patio.
Important practical points: the property is small (approximately 518 sq ft), on a mid-terrace, and parking is on-street by permit. Prospective buyers should verify all measurements, fixtures and tenure details and note the Lifetime Lease is only available to those aged 60 or over.
