Bellevue Terrace is an interesting mix of period homes, blending contrasting facades of differing heights which helps create a rather distinctive and appealing appearance. The grade II listing confirms that this is a truly individual home, built we believe around the 1840's and still offering all the charm and character one would expect in such a property. Inside only continues to impress with four floors of accommodation adaptable to meet the needs and demands of modern day living. There are two reception rooms and kitchen on the entrance level with access down to a lower floor which ideally provides a guest suite of reception area, bedroom and bathroom. On the first floor the front bedroom would make a perfect lounge where one could enjoy the splendid views from the large square bay window. In addition there is a second bedroom and bathroom. At the top of the house are two more bedrooms and a shower room. One could easily self contain the lower floor accommodation as there is a second private access via steps from the front well. Gated rear access with off road parking space.
LOCATION Although little known, Bellevue Terrace is the most perfect setting just a few steps from Southsea Common and the seafront. The position of number 3 provides a panoramic aspect up the terraces and across Pembroke Park. From here one can walk to the many amenities on offer from Palmerston Road to Gunwharf Quays or the Historic buildings between Southsea Castle and Old Portsmouth.
