House For Sale £765,000
Requiring general modernisation, this spacious and superior four bedroom semi-detached family house benefits from a generous garden, garage plus long private driveway, replacement double-glazing, and gas central heating. Within the much favoured 'Canoe Lake' residential area, Parkstone Avenue runs between Old Bridge Road and Whitwell Road, an exceptionally convenient, yet surprisingly quiet address a level walk of just a few minutes from The Canoe Lake itself and The Seafront, and some half a mile only to the east of Southsea Town Centre with its wide range of public amenities. Dating from the 1930s, the house itself has pebbledash-rendered elevations under a tiled roof with square dormer, the facade incorporating enclosed porch and double bay window. It stands behind a deep forecourt, whilst to the rear is a good-sized (41ft x 24ft) garden with side access. A private driveway provides open parking for up to four cars in front of a large single garage. As stated, the property will reward a programme of refurbishment, now offering considerable scope for an incoming owner to implement their own tastes and ideas, creating a home of quality and appeal.
