Second‑floor Victorian flat with high ceilings and large sash windows
Set on the second floor of a red‑brick Victorian terrace on Ashburton Road, this spacious two‑bedroom apartment offers generous room proportions and period character. High ceilings and large sash-style windows create a bright, airy living room, while the principal bedroom benefits from an en‑suite, making the layout practical for owners or sharers.
Offered with no onward chain and presented in a lived‑in but tidy condition, the flat suits first‑time buyers seeking a roomy starter home or investors targeting Southsea’s rental market. The location is a clear asset: shops, cafes, restaurants and the seafront are all within walking distance, and the property sits in a cosmopolitan area popular with students and professionals.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold (advertised as share of freehold), in a solid‑brick building constructed before 1900 with no known wall insulation, so energy improvements may be required to reduce running costs. Outdoor space is minimal and there are typical period‑property maintenance considerations; however council tax is very low and broadband and mobile signal are strong.
Overall this is a roomy, characterful Southsea apartment with immediate occupancy potential and good rental appeal, provided buyers accept the leasehold tenure and the likely need for energy or cosmetic upgrades.
