Summary - Southsea, Hampshire PO5 2JT
4 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Large character home near Southsea seafront with garage and garden.
Very large Victorian semi-detached villa, abundant living space
This substantial Victorian semi-detached villa offers exceptionally large family accommodation across multiple levels, with four double bedrooms and a primary bedroom that includes an en-suite. High ceilings, bay windows and original period details give the principal reception rooms strong character, while three formal reception rooms provide flexible living and entertaining space. The lower-ground level adds practical rooms—utility, workshop, games room and store—useful for a growing household or home offices.
Outside, the property benefits from an enclosed rear garden, gated parking/turning area and a large detached garage. Its position close to Southsea Common, local shops, cafés and the seafront places everyday amenities and leisure within easy reach. Broadband and mobile signal are reported as fast and excellent respectively, and flood risk is low.
Buyers should be aware this is an older house (circa 1900–1929) with cavity walls likely uninsulated and some restricted headroom in top-floor rooms and loft store. The lower-ground ceiling heights are lower than the main floors. Council Tax is Band E (above average) and the area records higher crime and local deprivation statistics, which some buyers may consider when comparing neighbourhoods.
Overall the house suits families seeking generous, characterful living space near the seafront and good local schools, or buyers wanting a large home with scope for sympathetic updating and improvement to modern standards.
