Leasehold with c.108 years remaining — buyer to confirm exact term

Local area has high crime and high deprivation — consider resale risk
This well-presented one-bedroom garden flat offers an affordable entry into Trinity Green, with a compact 485 sq ft layout and a private enclosed rear garden overlooking Portsmouth Harbour. The lounge/diner is a good size for the footprint, and the recently fitted kitchen and shower room make the flat move-in ready for many buyers.
Practical running costs are attractive: low service charge (£74.12pa), minimal ground rent (£10pa) and a long lease (108 years remaining). Residents’ permit parking (approx. £25pa) and a town-centre location put shops, cafes and the Gosport Ferry within easy walking distance.
There are a few material points to check before committing. Records indicate electric storage heaters as the main heating, although marketing text references gas central heating — this should be verified. The building dates from the late 1960s–1970s with cavity walls likely uninsulated and double glazing of unknown age, so further energy-efficiency improvements may be needed.
The surrounding area shows signs of high crime and significant deprivation; while the flat itself is cared for, buyers should consider local safety and resale dynamics. For first-time buyers seeking a modest, well-located flat with harbour views and low holding costs, this property represents a practical and affordable option, provided you are comfortable with potential future works and the neighbourhood context.
