Cash offers prior to auction are invited now for this well-situated and spacious four bedroom end-terrace character family house with replacement double-glazing and useful basement; requiring comprehensive modernisation and of interest to builders, investors and keen owner-occupiers. Britannia Road North runs between the main Victoria Road North and Rugby Road, a little to the south of Fratton Bridge. This popular residential address is some one mile only from Southsea Town Centre and Seafront, placing a wide range of public amenities within comfortable reach. A substantial late-Victorian property, No. 37 itself has brick elevations under a modern tiled roof, the facade incorporating recessed porch and double splay bay window. It stands behind a shallow forecourt, whilst to the rear is a small garden having westerly aspect and side pedestrian access. As stated, the house is in need now of a wide-ranging programme of refurbishment, presenting a desirable blank canvas opportunity either for future owner-occupation or for lucrative letting.
