This well-presented mid-terrace in PO2 has been newly renovated and offers a straightforward, move-in-ready layout for first-time buyers or investors. The house delivers three double bedrooms, two reception rooms and a modern kitchen and bathroom across an average-sized 936 sq ft footprint. The freehold tenure and low council tax help keep ongoing costs down.
The property retains period character externally while benefitting from contemporary interiors: high ceilings and exposed beams in the kitchen, neutral finishes and double glazing. The rear garden is low maintenance and fully enclosed, suited to easy outdoor living or minimal upkeep. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, and local bus routes and Kingston Road amenities are within easy walking distance.
Notable constraints are practical rather than cosmetic. The plot is small, there is a single family bathroom, and the property’s solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated—buyers may wish to budget for insulation improvements to reduce energy costs. The area sits within a deprived ward with average crime levels; nearby schools and transport links remain a positive for family buyers.
Overall this is a practical, modernised Victorian terrace that suits buyers seeking a ready-to-move-in home or a rental purchase with immediate appeal. The combination of low maintenance outdoor space, contemporary fittings and central Portsmouth location represents clear short-term usability and longer-term uplift potential with targeted improvements.
