This fourth-floor retirement apartment on Clarence Parade offers easy, seafront living with generous outside space. A large private roof terrace and lounge windows capture delightful views over The Solent towards the Isle of Wight, ideal for morning sun and evening sky-watching.
The layout includes two bedrooms, a good-size lounge, modern fitted kitchen and shower room, plus lift access to all floors. The development provides communal facilities that support independent living: residents’ lounge, laundry, games room, guest suite, observation deck and an on-site house manager. The property is offered chain-free with an extended lease of approximately 148 years.
Buyers should note measurable running costs: service charge £3,460.82 per six months (approx. £6,921.64pa) and ground rent £329.15 per six months (approx. £658.30pa). Heating is by electric night storage heaters and the main fuel is electricity, which can be more expensive than gas. Double glazing was installed before 2002 and the building dates from the 1980s/90s, so some components may need updating over time.
Overall this is a convenient, well-equipped retirement apartment in the heart of Southsea for someone seeking seaside views, a large private terrace and community facilities—provided they are comfortable with the service charges and electric heating arrangement.
