Property description

PROPERTY SUMMARY This property represents a rare opportunity to purchase a unique and historic home, which we understand was one of a group of seven buildings located towards the north end of the High Street, six of which appear to date back to the late 18th Century, only No. 133 and 134 have survived into the 21st Century, they appear to be largely unaltered since the days of the 'Charpentier' drawings of 1842. Behind the painted and rendered frontage is a home bursting with character features, including wide, stripped and stained floor boards, painted wood panelling, fire surrounds, an extensive central brick built chimney breast running the full height of the house and beyond. No. 133 is within walking distance of the maritime centre of Old Portsmouth, with the Sailing Club, Camber Dock, many restaurants and public houses as well as the fortified Napoleonic sea defences. The highly regarded schools including the Grammar School and the High School are nearby. The essence of the original family home has been retained with good sized rooms, some feature fireplaces / surrounds and the décor has been chosen to compliment the period atmosphere but with 21st Century facilities including a feature claw footed bathroom, en-suite shower room and a fitted country style kitchen. The 1630 sq ft of accommodation provides; three reception rooms with space for the family to indulge in hobbies or just relax, there are also three double bedrooms, a fitted kitchen and feature bathroom as well as an enclosed courtyard rear garden. The property is being sold with the added advantage of the garage and a separate title in St Thomas Street, internal viewing is strongly recommended in order to appreciate both location and accommodation on offer.
