Well-presented family home with garden and off-street parking.
Three bedrooms and separate lounge and dining room
This well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached home on Portal Road offers practical family living in a quiet residential street. The ground-floor bay window fills the lounge with natural light, and the layout — lounge, dining room and fitted kitchen — flows to a rear garden and off-street parking. At around 960 sq ft, rooms are comfortable rather than generous, suiting a young family or couple needing extra space.
Built in the mid‑20th century and finished with double glazing and mains gas central heating, the house is structurally typical for its era with cavity walls and a pitched roof. The property appears sound externally but would benefit from cosmetic modernisation in parts to reflect modern tastes and to add value. Freehold tenure and a low council tax band reduce running costs.
Location is a strong practical draw: good local bus links to Gosport and Fareham, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, plus several nearby primary and secondary schools (including Good-rated primaries). Local amenities — shops, healthcare and takeaways — are within easy reach.
Be upfront on the local context: the area scores as economically challenged with above-average crime and wider social pressures. That reality affects resale expectations and may influence buyer suitability. For buyers prioritising space, connectivity and school access over a top-tier neighbourhood, this house offers a straightforward, affordable family home with scope to personalise and improve.
