About this home
Lawson Rose are delighted to bring to the market this beautifully presented mid-terrace Victorian cottage, located in the highly sought-after Highland Terrace, Southsea. Positioned within a Conservation Area and just a short stroll from the vibrant Albert Road, the property enjoys a wonderfully tucked-away setting behind the impressive St Margaret's Church. Set back from the main thoroughfare, this charming and distinctive home benefits from generous front and rear gardens — a rare find in this popular PO4 pocket — offering a picturesque and peaceful retreat in the heart of Southsea.
Approached via a front gate and cobbled pathway, the property opens into a spacious, bright and airy open-plan lounge/dining room — undoubtedly the heart of the home. This welcoming space is perfect for both relaxing and entertaining, blending character and comfort in equal measure.
Moving through the ground floor, there is a stylish modern bathroom suite, complete with a skylight that floods the room with natural light. To the rear sits a charming fitted kitchen, enjoying delightful views over the impressive 60ft rear garden. The garden itself is a true highlight — mature and well-established, featuring a patio seating area and a generous lawn, creating an ideal space for outdoor dining, gardening or simply unwinding.
The first floor provides two well-proportioned double bedrooms, with the principal bedroom enjoying wonderful elevated views towards the church — a truly unique outlook that enhances the home's character.
This property would make an excellent first-time purchase or suit those looking to downsize while remaining in the heart of Southsea. Offered with no forward chain, it presents a fantastic opportunity for a smooth and straightforward move.
