An imposing five-bedroom Victorian house in central Southsea offering generous living space across multiple floors. High ceilings, original bay windows and period moldings give the main reception rooms strong character and natural light, creating comfortable family spaces for everyday life and entertaining.
The property suits a family seeking space and proximity to schools, shops and transport. Practical assets include a garage, decent plot with private garden, cellar storage and two bathrooms. The house is offered chain-free, allowing a quicker completion for buyers wanting to move promptly.
There are clear refurbishment considerations: the home dates from the 1930s–40s, cavity walls are assumed uninsulated and glazing install dates are unknown, so thermal and energy upgrades may be needed. Council tax is noted as expensive and local crime levels are above average; these are realistic factors to weigh when budgeting and choosing where to live.
Overall this is a rare, characterful detached property in a requested Southsea location that will reward buyers who value period detail and generous room proportions but are prepared to invest in modernisation and efficiency improvements.
