3 Bedroom Terraced House for rent in Old Portsmouth

PROPERTY SUMMARY An excellent example of a professionally restored early 1600’s built timber framed house. A great deal of consideration for the era and building construction has been taken into account during the restoration with some lime plastering, wattle and daub and maintenance to the original beams having taken place. Despite retaining the character of the sloping ceilings, exposed beams, undulating floor levels, improvements have involved replacement windows with wood framed double glazed units, the installation of gas fired central heating, re-wiring, re-plastering as well as adding new contemporary style sanitary fittings and a fitted kitchen. The accommodation is arranged over three floors and comprises; dining room/reception 1, cloakroom, kitchen/breakfast room leading to courtyard garden and study/home office on the ground floor, with an elegant drawing room and large master bedroom and en-suite bathroom on the first floor and a character bedroom and feature bathroom with claw footed bath on the top floor. There is also cellar/basement accessible via a hatchway entrance and staircase from the internal hall. Having feature timber beams, classic forged iron window/curtain poles, a courtyard style garden, exposed brick fireplaces and some flagstone flooring and having no forward chain, early internal viewing if this unique period cottage is strongly recommended to appreciate both the accommodation and location on offer.
