Clarendon Road, Southsea, PO5 2ED

Occupying a prominent position along one of Southsea's most sought-after residential roads, this delightful semi-detached Victorian home, dating from 1865, offers an exceptional blend of elegant period character, generous proportions and remarkable versatility.

Arranged over four spacious floors, the property provides flexible accommodation suited to growing families, those seeking multi-generational living, or purchasers requiring space to work from home.

The deep frontage with paved driveway provides off-road parking for two cars and the handsome façade immediately hints at the scale within.

A welcoming entrance hall, enhanced by impressive ceiling heights and beautiful original features, leads to a magnificent bay-fronted sitting room flooded with natural light from its oversized sash windows.

This floor also offers a generous double bedroom, a utility room and contemporary shower room.

The lower ground floor - which can be self-contained with its own private entrance - provides exceptional flexibility.

A central hallway leads to two generously sized areas with separate WC offering options for an annexe, hobby space, offices, or additional bedrooms.

The first floor forms the heart of the home, where a superb kitchen/dining room spans the full width of the rear of the property, creating an excellent space for both everyday family life and entertaining.

To the front is an elegant reception room, currently arranged as a lounge, featuring French doors opening onto a delightful south-facing balcony. A family bathroom completes this level.

On the second floor are three further well-proportioned bedrooms. Outside, the beautifully enclosed rear walled garden is a true highlight.

It has been thoughtfully established with an abundance of mature trees, colourful flower beds, established shrubs and an attractive lawn, creating a wonderfully private and tranquil setting rarely found so close to Southsea's vibrant amenities.

This elegant Victorian residence - just a short walk from the seafront - presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial character home offering both timeless charm and exceptional flexibility in one of Southsea's finest locations.
