A compact one-bedroom first-floor apartment in central Southsea, recently refreshed and offered with no forward chain. The property sits in a Victorian terraced building with high ceilings and bay windows, giving period character despite its modest size. A newly fitted kitchen (2024) and double glazing (2024) bring immediate, practical benefits for day-to-day living.
At around 395 sq ft this flat is suited to a first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-entry city purchase. Gas central heating and a mains boiler provide reliable warmth; council tax is very cheap which helps running costs. The flat is within walking distance of local shops, transport links and a wide range of amenities popular with students and professionals.
Buyers should note material points plainly: the property is leasehold with 111 years remaining, an average service charge of £1,755 and a ground rent of £250. The neighbourhood records higher crime and area deprivation than average, and the building’s cavity walls are assumed to be uninsulated. Overall this is a practical, ready-to-move-in small flat with clear potential for first-time buyers or lettings, provided the communal charges and local area factors fit your priorities.
