Rare large townhouse near seafront and university, ready to let or occupy.
Five bedrooms over four floors, newly converted from commercial use
A substantial five-bedroom Victorian townhouse converted from offices and fully refurbished in 2025. Laid out over four floors, the property offers a generous internal footprint with living, dining and kitchen on the lower ground floor and a master suite on the upper ground. Permitted development rights were obtained and conversion completed by the current owners.
The house sits a short walk from the seafront, university campus and retail at Gunwharf, making it well placed for lettings to students, professionals and families. It has off-street parking for two to three vehicles and a small rear garden, plus vacant possession ready for immediate let or occupation. The interior was updated with a new kitchen, bathroom and two shower suites at an approximate cost of £150,000.
Buyers should note this lot is sold at auction with a 5% deposit on fall of the hammer, plus a buyer’s premium of 5% + VAT (minimum fee applies) and quick completion terms. The property is in a city centre area classified as a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood with higher local crime levels — assess suitability for your use and insurance. The plot is small and the outside space is limited compared with suburban houses.
This unusually large, newly renovated townhouse represents a clear investment or family-home opportunity in a high-profile Portsmouth location. The conversion history and recent works reduce immediate refurbishment risk, but purchasers must review the legal pack for special conditions, additional costs and complete usual due diligence before bidding.
