House For Sale £650,000

Location Southsea comes with a vast range of things to do and see, which is the reason that it has always remained such a popular destination for so many. Stretching from Old Portsmouth in the east to the conservation area of Eastney in the west, Southsea's seafront is certainly one of its most favourite places with some beautiful walks along its historic shoreline, as well as Southsea Castle. The area also offers an array of good pubs, bars and restaurants, has great shopping alongside an assortment of stylish cafes.

As well as close to several highly regarded schools including Portsmouth High School, Southsea Infants and Craneswater Junior School, to name but a few, the property is also only a short walk away from Mayville High School which is a leading independent co-educational day school that caters for Nursery, Junior and Senior students and one that has been rated 'Excellent' in all areas of provision as noted by the educational governing body. Nearby Old Portsmouth is literally half an hour's walk, along with the iconic Spinnaker Tower, Gunwarf Quay shopping outlet and Portsmouth's historic dockyard also close by and home to both the hms Victory and Mary Rose.

Within minutes of leaving Southsea, there are M27 motorway links providing easy access to all main routes including Southampton and Winchester to the east, Chichester and Brighton to the west, with access via A3 to both Guildford and London. Old Portsmouth also benefits from its own mainline railway station, as well as Portsmouth & Southsea station. Overall, Southsea is not only a hard act to follow for all of these things combined but also without a doubt, a truly wonderful place to live.

Outside Externally, there is a driveway to the side of the house enabling access for bikes along the side of the property, which then leads directly through to the rear courtyard where there is a good size workshop which has full power and lighting, with an attached brick-built shed providing useful storage.
