5 bed link detached house for sale

Helena Road, Southsea PO4

'A luxury family home of generous proportions'

'Elysia' offers plenty of living space and a particularly welcoming atmosphere. It is situated in a highly desirable, residential area within a stones throw to the historic Victorian waterfront. The accommodation is perfectly suited for family life, with the potential to entertain being pivotal in the interior design.

Arranged over four levels, it has five bedrooms, two elegant reception rooms as well as an exquisite basement level cinema room.

The rear garden offers a low maintenance retreat to bask in the south-easterly sun, accessible from the fully fitted kitchen/breakfast room via bi-fold doors. Having high ceilings, original feature surround fireplaces, ceiling coving and high skirting boards, all of which the current owners have managed to tastefully incorporate in a full refurbishment.

Being within easy access to Eastern Parade, Canoe Lake and the boutique shops in Albert Road as well as the bustling entertainment area of Gunwharf Quays, an internal viewing is highly recommended to appreciate both the accommodation and location on offer.

Solicitor

Choosing the right conveyancing solicitor is extremely important to ensure that you obtain an effective yet cost-efficient solution. The lure of supposedly cheaper on-line "conveyancing warehouse" style services can be very difficult to ignore but this is a route fraught with problems that we strongly urge you to avoid. A local, established and experienced conveyancer will safeguard your interests and get the job done in a timely manner. Bernards can recommend several local firms of solicitors who have the necessary local knowledge and will provide a personable service. Please ask a member of our sales team for further details.
