Property description
Wow!! What an opportunity to buy this wonderfully imposing, exquisitely restored, early Edwardian villa. In a road where property rarely becomes available, this house is sure to attract significant interest, with its flexible accommodation and array of period features complemented by the current owners' flare for modern interior design.
The ground floor comprises two spacious proportioned rooms, which can be open plan or separated by grand wooden doors. These bright and airy rooms have eye-catching coving and fireplaces, high ceilings, large windows and exude their original elegance.
To the rear of the ground floor is a stunning contemporary kitchen perfectly suited to family life and entertaining. The kitchen's clean lines, under floor heating, ample storage and modern appliances are complemented by a good sized dining area with tri-fold doors opening onto an attractive and well maintained garden.
The bedrooms upstairs are located on split levels, adding character to the house and allowing welcome separation from yourself and the kids when you need it, giving you your own little sanctuary.
A perfect family home located in what is arguably one of Southsea's most sought after roads.
What the Owner says:
We've lived in Wilberforce Road for over 15 yrs and it's been wonderful to raise our family in such a friendly community. Originally bought as two tired flats, but with bags of potential, we are very proud of the warm family home we have created. It is an amazingly quiet location, yet right in the heart of Southsea and handy for everything.
We are very reluctant to leave, as our neighbours are also a group of very good friends. We've had some memorable social events over the years, including a couple of street parties (the 'odd numbers' always beat the 'even numbers' in the Wilberforce Road tug of war). We will really miss it, but are moving to the Isle of Wight to be nearer to work and the children's school.
