A versatile six-bedroom Victorian terrace in Southsea, offered with no forward chain and freehold ownership. The house sits within walking distance of shops, cafés and regular bus routes, making it suitable for investors targeting students and professionals or families seeking central convenience. The layout includes a lounge, kitchen/dining room, utility, two shower rooms and a bathroom across three storeys, plus an enclosed rear garden with pedestrian access.
The property retains period character such as bay windows and sash-style glazing and benefits from mains gas central heating and double glazing. At about 1,539 sq ft, the interior offers flexible living or rental rooms and three bathrooms, which is a practical selling point for multi-occupancy or large households.
Buyers should note material issues: the building is pre-1900 with cavity walls assumed uninsulated, so thermal upgrades and insulation work are likely. The area is classified as deprived with higher-than-average crime rates; nearby schools include a mix of Ofsted ratings. The small plot and mid-terrace position limit exterior space and extension potential.
This is a clear opportunity for a hands-on investor or a family prepared to modernise. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support rental demand; prospective purchasers are advised to commission a full inspection and factor in refurbishment, insulation and ongoing neighbourhood considerations when assessing value.
