Set across three floors, this substantial five-bedroom Victorian town house blends period detail with modern living. High ceilings, decorative cornicing, sash windows and working fireplaces provide character, while an open-plan kitchen with integrated appliances and a utility room add contemporary convenience. The property offers three bathrooms and five double bedrooms, including a generous principal suite, suiting larger families or those needing flexible space.
The rear patio and small garden provide a private outdoor retreat within Central Southsea, and the location is a short walk from local shops, restaurants and well-regarded schools. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support home working; the house is offered freehold and chain free, allowing a straightforward purchase for a buyer ready to move quickly.
Practical considerations include above-average council tax and a higher local crime rate; the area is described as deprived in parts and has a strong student and professional population. The property’s cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so upgrading insulation and other energy-efficiency measures should be factored into budgets. Overall this house offers generous accommodation and strong rental or family potential, provided you allow for some targeted improvements.
