Outside to the rear, the property features an exceptional garden which has been designed with entertaining & low maintenance in mind. To the front is a gated driveway for a number of vehicles. The current rental per room is estimated at £750pcm with all bills included, with 5 rooms this generates a yeild over 9%. With 6 Rooms the yield could be in excess of 11%

Location The general character of Portsmouth Road and the Old Woolston area is suburban with traces of the former rural settlement that gave it its special character in the past. Most properties on Portsmouth Road preserved their original frontage including bay windows, tiled porches/verandas, decorative brick work, barge boards and original front doors which lend an attractive residential character. Residents of Portsmouth Road are able to access an outstanding selection of shops, cafes and amenities nearby in the vibrant Woolston High Street and excellent choice of local schools including the Woolston Infant School, St Patrick's Catholic Primary School and Ludlow Junior School. There is a number of natural attractions nearby including Peartree Green Nature Reserve, the Archery Grounds and Millers Pond Nature Reserve; a 20-acre site of mixed woodland, open grassland and a large pond; one of the few remaining large ponds in the city. Next to the Nature Reserve is the beloved Miller's Pond pub where visitors can enjoy a large beer garden with outside bar for the summer, outside stage for live acts and showing of all major sport events with a huge selection of draft beers, wines and spirits.
