Portsmouth, England

PROPERTY SUMMARY Garden View has a number of outstanding and interesting features. It is a deceptively spacious family home arranged over four floors, providing 3,137 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 floors at the back of the house through double-height windows. On the lower level, bi-fold doors lead from the kitchen to a courtyard, while the raised Juliette balcony inside offers outstanding views over the rest of the garden. The property has large windows, providing plenty of natural light and a spacious, airy feel. On the lower ground floor there is an open-plan kitchen and dining room, extending into a family room and continuing into a laundry room, boiler room and cloakroom. There is also a double-height void with a staircase leading up to the formal cinema/sitting room, cloakroom and separate snug. On the first floor are two bedrooms; the second has an en-suite shower room, while the primary bedroom has an inner landing, an en-suite feature bathroom and a vaulted ceiling. On the top floor are two further bedrooms and a separate shower room. The property has gated off-road parking, a double garage, double glazing, a heat recovery and ventilation system, underfloor heating and a smart home system. This is a home network that can be controlled by command. Whether you give the command by remote control, tablet or smartphone, the home responds. The applications relate to lighting, home security, entertainment, heating and hot water. The house is also within easy reach of Southsea Common and the seafront, and within walking distance of highly regarded schools, including The Grammar School, The High School, St Johns College and Mayville. An early internal viewing is strongly recommended to appreciate the contemporary style, character features and location.
