About
Three-bedroom mid-terraced home featuring bright open-plan living and well-proportioned rooms.
Ideally located close to shops, schools, transport links and other local amenities, offering convenient modern living for families or first-time buyers.
Property description Set in the highly sought-after Bramble Road, Southsea, this substantial three-bedroom mid-terraced house represents an exceptional opportunity for buyers seeking a high-yield investment or a spacious home in a prime rental location.
With its generous internal layout, open-plan living space, and established compliance for multi-occupancy, this property is perfectly positioned for strong and immediate returns.
The home benefits from a current HMO licence and holds a C4 planning use class, allowing continued use as a House in Multiple Occupation.
This makes it an ideal purchase for landlords looking to let to students or professionals, with demand in this area consistently high due to its proximity to the University of Portsmouth, transport links, and Southsea's vibrant amenities.
Properties with existing HMO status in this location are increasingly rare, making this an especially attractive investment.
Internally, the property offers three genuine double bedrooms, providing excellent rental flexibility and strong occupancy potential.
The upstairs bathroom serves the bedrooms well, while the ground floor features a large open-plan lounge/kitchen, creating a sociable and versatile living space that appeals to both tenants and owner-occupiers.
This layout is perfect for entertaining and offers scope for further enhancement or reconfiguration.
Please note: The property does not have a garden, making it a low-maintenance option for both landlords and residents who prefer minimal outdoor upkeep.
This also maximises the internal footprint, ensuring every square foot is usable and functional.
The property is being sold with vacant possession, allowing buyers to take immediate control - whether that means re-letting to students, securing professional tenants, or undertaking refurbishment works to increase rental value.
Bramble Road is well-known for its strong community feel and unbeatable convenience, with shops, cafés, parks, and major bus routes all within easy reach.
With its combination of HMO licensing, C4 planning status, three double bedrooms, and a prime Southsea location, this property offers a rare and compelling opportunity for investors, first-time buyers, or those seeking a project with excellent long-term potential.
Homes of this type consistently attract significant interest at auction, and this one is expected to be no exception.
Early viewing is strongly recommended to appreciate the scale, flexibility, and investment potential this property offers.
