Maintenance tbc
berth An 11 metre berth located at the other end of the terrace with power and water supply from the house.
Owners comments "The plot benefits from a side garden, rare in Port Solent, enclosed by a high brick wall affording total privacy from the road and footpath running beside it. The rear and side garden total 99 m2 whereas other properties in the row have 26m2 or the taller narrower houses 23m2.
The larger than average front garden is planted with mature shrubs and currently maintained by the estate gardeners. There is also a driveway for one car and a parking area opposite the terrace. The total area of the rear garden is somewhat larger than the average size for Port Solent and affords a number of possibilities for various uses/development. Currently there is a substantial, well maintained shed with metal roof in the side garden. This was formerly used as a pottery studio and has power and water installed.
The attractive garden is landscaped with many mature shrubs, interesting climbers around a pergola walkway and the balconies. The marine influence to it's design, is modelled on sections of the gardens at West Dean and using specialist river gravel to give a 'behind the dunes' feel. There is a picket fence with gate leading onto a secure marina side walkway serving residents' moorings in this particular terrace only. There is also convenient access to the road via a locked gate on this walkway".
