5 Bed Detached House For Sale

Sold with no forward chain, this impressive five-bedroom semi-detached period home is set within the highly sought-after Craneswater area, one of Southsea's most desirable residential locations. The property retains a wealth of original character, including high ceilings, large rooms, picture rails and elegant bay windows. The home offers substantial living space arranged over four floors, with the added benefit of a cellar and off-road parking on the driveway. Internally, the accommodation comprises a welcoming entrance hall, three generous reception rooms, and a well-proportioned kitchen overlooking the rear garden. There is also a conservatory providing access to the garden and a convenient ground floor W.C. Across the upper levels, there are five spacious bedrooms, including a particularly large bay-fronted bedroom as well as two bathrooms. The cellar provides valuable additional storage or scope for conversion, while the rear garden offers a private, low-maintenance outdoor space ideal for relaxing or entertaining. While the property has been well maintained by the current owners and has the benefit of a newly fitted roof in recent years, it offers a fantastic opportunity for a new owner to modernise and renovate to their own tastes and standards, whilst adding value. Located within walking distance of Canoe Lake, Southsea seafront and local amenities, properties of this scale and character are rarely available in this prestigious location, so an early inspection is recommended to avoid disappointment.
