This charming Victorian end-of-terrace on Villiers Road offers generous, flexible accommodation across four floors and sits in a central Southsea spot just moments from Palmerston Road, Southsea Common and the seafront. The house is bright and deceptively spacious, with a contemporary open-plan kitchen and living room that opens onto a south-facing front garden — ideal for morning sun and outdoor seating. There is off-street parking accessed via a rear courtyard with an electric roller door.
Accommodation is versatile: the property currently provides three principal bedrooms, an ensuite on the top floor and a family bathroom, while two additional lower-level rooms could serve as bedrooms, studies or snug spaces. Presented in good order with many period features retained (stained glass, fireplace and coving), the house will appeal to buyers seeking character with modern comforts, including integrated kitchen appliances and a gas boiler central heating system.
Important practical points: this is a freehold, chain-free sale with a modest plot and council tax Band D. The property has double glazing installed before 2002 and the external walls are original cavity construction with no known added insulation, so further insulation or window upgrades may be considered to improve energy efficiency. The wider area is lively and cosmopolitan but records higher local crime levels, which some buyers will want to factor into their decision.
This home suits a family or buyer who values central Southsea living, period character and flexible space — while being prepared to invest modestly in insulation or window improvements to enhance long-term running costs.
