A bright, contemporary studio in the Round House at Gunwharf Quays, well suited to a first-time buyer or investor seeking a city-centre base. The open-plan layout makes efficient use of space and benefits from good natural light through large windows; finishes are modern and the building dates from the mid-2000s with double glazing and an EPC rating of B.
Location is the key asset: immediate access to shops, restaurants and Portsmouth Harbour transport hub makes commuting and leisure straightforward. The nearby university and strong local rental demand give clear investor appeal; rental location is described as desirable and the flat is walkable to major services and amenities.
Be clear on the practical points: tenure is leasehold with about 104 years remaining and a small ground rent of £200. Heating is electric via room heaters (no communal gas); broadband in the area is reported very slow. Parking is on-street by permit only and the local crime level is noted as high, which may affect some buyers’ priorities.
Overall this studio offers low-running council tax and low-maintenance modern living in a prime waterfront setting. It is an efficient city pied-à-terre or a straightforward rental proposition, but consider broadband limits, electric heating and location-related security factors before committing.
