Located on the ever-popular Havelock Road in the heart of Southsea, this impressive grand period terraced home combines elegant character features with stylish modern upgrades and generous family accommodation arranged over multiple levels. The property is approached via a traditional façade typical of the area’s handsome period homes and opens into a welcoming entrance hall. On the ground floor, a superb double reception room forms the heart of the home, comprising a beautifully proportioned lounge and cosy snug, linked by a wide opening that creates a versatile, flowing living space.
Double-glazed sash windows flood the interior with natural light, while a wood-burning stove provides a charming focal point and a warm, inviting atmosphere. To the rear of the property is a spacious kitchen/dining room, thoughtfully designed for modern living and entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with quality integrated appliances including a premium Gaggenau five-ring gas hob, alongside ample cabinetry and work surfaces. Large bifolding doors open directly onto the rear garden, creating an excellent connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. A convenient ground-floor WC is also located off the hallway. Upstairs, the accommodation is arranged across split levels, adding character and architectural interest. The generous principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room. There are three further well-proportioned double bedrooms, one with another en-suite, ideal for family members, guests, or home working. A family bathroom serves the additional bedrooms, complemented by a separate WC and a useful walk-in airing cupboard providing excellent storage. Further practical space is offered by a cellar, ideal for storage. Externally, the property boasts a particularly long south-facing rear garden - a rare and desirable feature in this central Southsea location - offering excellent sunlight throughout the day and plenty of space for outdoor dining, gardening, and family enjoyment. Blending period charm with modern convenience, this substantial home offers flexible accommodation in one of Southsea’s most sought-after residential roads, within easy reach of the seafront, local amenities, and transport links.
