We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
This imposing and substantial, semi-deatched, period residence, set in the heart of central Southsea on the sought-after St.
David's Road, offers an abundance of character, charm, and versatile living accommodation arranged across three beautifully split-level floors.
A true testament to timeless design and scale, this exceptional family home is ready to begin its next chapter.
Stepping inside, you're welcomed into a bright and airy front reception room, complete with a large bay window, feature fireplace, and an elegant ceiling rose-showcasing the property's retained period features.
A second reception room, currently used as a family lounge, offers further flexibility and comfort.
To the rear, there is a downstairs W, C and an expansive open-plan kitchen and dining room is a real showstopper.
Designed for both family life and entertaining, it features a log-burning stove, Velux skylights, and double French doors that open directly onto the mature rear garden-creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow.
On the first floor, the accommodation continues with two generously sized double bedrooms, a large family bathroom suite, and an additional fitted shower room.
The upper floors host three more beautifully presented double bedrooms, each with unique character and charm, connected by a spacious landing that enhances the sense of light and openness.
Further benefits include a large cellar with excellent potential (currently used for storage) and a lush, green, city-style rear garden-an inviting retreat ideal for relaxing or hosting.
Side pedestrian access adds a touch of everyday convenience. A rare opportunity to acquire such a substantial home in this desirable location, early internal viewing is strongly recommended.
