2 bedroom cottage for sale

This charming two-bedroom Freehold Grade II listed cottage forms part of a former Vicarage adjacent to St Jude's Church in the very heart of central Southsea. It is understood that the Vicarage was converted in the 1980s and this central section benefits from a sunny southerly aspect, overlooking a private enclosed garden and with stunning views of the iconic Thomas Ellis Own church. Spread over three floors, the spacious accommodation is versatile in its arrangement. On the entrance level, an open plan lounge / dining and kitchen has a double set of glazed doors which lead down to the garden and includes a contemporary kitchen with fitted appliances. On the lower ground floor, a generous double bedroom with walk-in storage cupboard, and a shower room with space and plumbing for a washing machine. A single occupant may prefer to use this floor as a lounge and study and keep the entrance level as a dedicated dining space adjacent to the kitchen. On the top floor, a spacious double bedroom is adjacent to a modern bathroom. Presented in good decorative order throughout, the property is sold with no forward chain.
