Affordable one-bedroom flat close to shops and transport — ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
No onward chain — purchase can be quicker
This first-floor one-bedroom flat in PO2 offers an affordable entry into Portsmouth’s property market or a compact rental opportunity. At around 370 sq ft it provides a sitting room, a large kitchen with space for white goods, double glazing and a three-piece bathroom — all offered with no onward chain for a quicker purchase process.
The building dates from circa 1900–1929 and sits in a terraced row close to local shops, transport and community amenities on London Road. The location suits buyers who need excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and ready access to schools and local services.
Buyers should note material limitations: the flat is leasehold, small in footprint, and sits in an area with above-average crime levels and higher deprivation. Wall construction is cavity with no installed insulation assumed, and the listing references both electric heating and a mains-gas boiler/radiator system — heating details should be verified. The property is best suited to first-time buyers prepared to accept a compact layout or investors seeking a straightforward let or a light refurbishment project.
Overall, this is a pragmatic, low-cost option for someone prioritising location and price over space and finish. Viewings are recommended so purchasers can confirm condition, service charges or lease details and assess renovation potential.
