Sold with no forward chain, this grand semi-detached property named Saxon House is located in one of Southsea’s most desirable residential areas, nestled amongst similar large period homes in a prized Conservation Area. The property boasts generous proportions throughout and includes the rare benefit of a detached wide garage accessed via Garden Lane. There is a beautifully maintained enclosed garden to the front of the property, with a characterful tiled pathway leading to the solid wood front door, which in turn opens into a welcoming entrance with stained-glass windows and door leading to the hallway.
From here, stairs lead to both the upper and lower levels. On the ground floor, the accommodation comprises a formal dining room with bay window to the front, a generous lounge, and a charming garden room/utility with double doors out to the garden. To the rear of the property, there is a spacious kitchen/breakfast room overlooking the garden, with an adjoining WC. The first floor offers three well-proportioned double bedrooms and a fourth single bedroom, all served by a modern fitted bathroom with separate shower and a WC. The principal bedroom is bay-fronted and has an en-suite shower room. Stairs rise to a bright and versatile loft room and also a study space found on the rear landing. On the lower level, there is a cellar, ideal for storage or future conversion, subject to the necessary consents. Externally, there is a well-kept, southerly aspect garden with areas of patio, lawn and plant bed boarders. With access directly into the garage and rear pedestrian access.
LOCATION
St Edwards Road is situated in the heart of the Owens Conservation Area and as such has a traditional period feel to the street and surrounding buildings. The road is also within easy reach of the shopping facilities on Palmerston Road and the boutique and independent traders on the adjacent Castle Road. The historic Southsea Common and The Seafront are just over a quarter of a mile to the south which offers a range of leisure pursuits. For commuters, good road links lead out of the city, bus services pass close by linking to other transport hubs and the closest mainline railway is Portsmouth & Southsea at under a mile to the north.
