Francis Avenue, Southsea £440,000

No Forward Chain! This impressive and substantial four-bedroom bay and forecourt home has been comprehensively renovated, updated and modernised by the current owners within the last eight months, resulting in a truly standout, ready-to-move-into family property in a highly desirable central Southsea location. Situated on the ever-popular Francis Avenue, the home perfectly balances contemporary living with retained period charm, showcasing an abundance of original features that add character and warmth throughout.

Upon entering, the inviting hallway immediately sets the scene, leading through to a generous front living room complete with a large bay window, ornate ceiling rose and an attractive feature fireplace, creating a welcoming space to relax. The real heart of the home is the exceptional open-plan kitchen and dining area, a bright and sociable space that has been stylishly redesigned for modern family life and entertaining. While not a new extension, this area has been extensively renovated, including a new roof, new doors and full redecoration, and opens via double doors onto the garden, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living.

Further benefits on the ground floor include a handy utility area and a sleek, contemporary downstairs shower room. Upstairs, the first floor offers four well-proportioned double bedrooms, with the fourth accessed via the third, alongside a newly refurbished family bathroom, completed as part of the recent renovation works undertaken within the past eight months.

Additional highlights include double glazing, gas central heating, and a large cellar/basement, currently used for storage but offering excellent potential for further use, subject to the necessary consents. With every element renewed, replaced, redecorated or upgraded, this superb home has been carefully prepared to allow a prospective buyer to simply move straight in with no further works required. An internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the space, finish, character and exceptional location this wonderful home has to offer.
