Southsea, Hampshire

PROPERTY SUMMARY Garden View has a number of outstanding and interesting features, it is a deceptively spacious family home which is arranged over four floors and provides 3137 sq ft of living space including a double garage. The house has been aptly named as it benefits from a larger than average split level mature rear garden which can be viewed from two stories from the back of the house via twin height windows. On the lower level are bi-folding doors leading from the kitchen to a courtyard and from the raised Juliette internal balcony there are outstanding views over the rest of the garden. The property has large windows and provides a lot of natural light and a spacious and airy feel. On the lower ground floor is an open plan kitchen, dining room which extends into a family room which continues into a laundry room, boiler room and cloakroom. There is also a two-storey void with staircase leading up to the formal cinema / sitting room, cloakroom and separate snug. On the first floor are two bedrooms, the second with an en-suite shower room and the master having an inner landing with en-suite feature bathroom and main bedroom with a vaulted ceiling, on the top floor are two further bedrooms and a separate shower room. The property has off road gated car parking, a double garage, double glazing, heat recovery and ventilation system as well as underfloor heating and a smarthome system, this is a home network controllable on command. Whether you give that command by remote control, tablet or smartphone, the home reacts. The applications relate to lighting, home security, entertainment, and heating and hot water.

The house is also situated within easy access of Southsea Common, the seafront and within walking distance of the highly regarded schools including The Grammar School, The High School, St Johns College and Mayville, early internal viewing is strongly recommended in order to appreciate both the contemporary style character features and location.
