Queen's Grove, Southsea

This outstanding detached residence is situated in the heart of Southsea centre, within easy reach of Palmerston Road shopping precinct, the seafront, and popular private schools. With almost 4,500sqft of accommodation, the striking building with red and yellow brick details of herringbone and diaper patterns, stone coinings and grand chimneys could suit the largest of families and is priced sensibly to allow a new owner to renovate and restore the internal accommodation to their own taste. The versatile accommodation could be adapted to suit modern living with larger bathrooms, dressing areas and study spaces, by converting some of the 8 available bedrooms. A grand reception hall in the centre of the building gives way to three reception rooms on the entrance level. The lower ground floor holds the kitchen, formal dining room, a study and store spaces. The two upper floors, accessed via a stately return staircase holds two wash rooms and the 8 bedrooms, all of which are comfortable doubles. Occupying a generous plot, the frontage offers enough space to accommodate multiple vehicles off-road, leading to a garage and workshop and the private rear garden is surrounded by tall walls and mature borders which offer rarely-found seclusion in the centre of Southsea.
