  • Renovation of a 3-bedroom, end-of-terrace house

  • No planning required for the works 

  • Complete back-to-brick refurb

Tucked into a residential street in Southsea, this three-bedroom end-of-terrace property was acquired as a repossession, creating the opportunity to secure it at a low purchase price. With no planning requirements in place, it was an ideal candidate for a fast turnaround.


Evolve worked with trusted contractors, LKE contracts, to fast-track the complete back-to-brick refurbishment. Years of neglect had left the structure compromised, with failed wall ties and damp-proofing among the issues to resolve. These were carefully resolved to ensure long-term integrity, while the interiors were fully reconfigured and rebuilt to create a fresh, spacious home.


The result is a three-bedroom house finished to the highest standard, transformed from a tired shell into a desirable living space. By moving quickly from acquisition to completion, investors saw funds returned on an accelerated timeline, while the end product stands as a strong addition to the Southsea market.
