Freehold

Description

Enjoying a rare degree of seclusion in the very heart of SOUTHSEA TOWN CENTRE whilst also boasting generous and well-proportioned living space, delightful private gardens with off-street parking, and a wealth of period features, this FIVE BEDROOM SEMI-DETACHED CHARACTER RESIDENCE serves as a comfortable and stylish family home in its current state whilst providing an excellent development opportunity to enhance the property further to its full potential. Brandon Road runs between Hamilton Road and Clarendon Road, a level walk of some quarter of a mile only from Southsea Common and Palmerston Road Shopping Precinct, an exceptionally convenient address within comfortable reach of a wide range of public amenities including:  Seafront leisure and recreation, main-line stations, University Campus and various good schools. Of classic late-Victorian design, No. 7 itself has pebbledash rendered elevations, enclosed porch, and bold bay windows on two sides, all under a modern tiled roof. It stands well-screened from the road behind a mature and charming 50ft x 55ft garden which affords car hardstanding, the generous grounds being completed by an enclosed rear courtyard and wide sideway with chalet/workshop. In our clients' family's hands for many years, and offered now with the benefit of NO ONWARD CHAIN, the property now requires a programme of up-dating. It holds considerable scope for new owners to re-model as suits their needs, creating a long-term family home of genuine quality and appeal. Full particulars are given as follow:
