A characterful Victorian end-of-terrace arranged over four storeys, this three-bedroom freehold combines period detail with practical upgrades. The dual-aspect living room with bay window and a 2016 log burner provides a bright, sociable ground floor; wooden floors and fireplaces add authentic character throughout. The kitchen opens onto a private roof terrace — a sunny outdoor room ideal for sitting out or small-scale entertaining.
Accommodation is flexible: three bedrooms plus additional rooms and a usable basement (split into a boarded storage side and an area that would benefit from updating) suit family living or investor/HMO use. A 2016 combi boiler is housed in a cupboard at the top of the stairs; the bathroom has natural ventilation via a sash window and built-in storage.
Location is a major draw: tucked near Norman Road and Kings Road, it’s walking distance to cafes, galleries, seafront and Warrior Square station with direct London links. Practical points to note: there is no substantial rear garden, the basement requires improvement, the EPC is E, and the neighbourhood shows higher-than-average crime and significant area deprivation — factors buyers should consider when budgeting and for insurance or letting decisions.
