Own private entrance — basement apartment layout.
Modern fitted kitchen and bathroom; well-presented interior.
Large double bedroom with built-in storage.
High flood risk — basement location vulnerable.
High local crime levels; consider security measures.
Leasehold 99 years; ground rent £260pa; council tax very cheap.
This well-presented one-bedroom basement flat sits a stone's throw from Southsea seafront, offering compact coastal living with contemporary finishes. The apartment has a private entrance, a modern fitted kitchen and bathroom, and a large double bedroom with built-in storage — all arranged within around 667 sq ft of internal space.
The property suits first-time buyers seeking an affordable seaside home or buy-to-let investors looking for rental demand close to amenities, public transport and leisure facilities. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are reported as strong, and communal outside space adds a practical outdoor option despite the basement position.
There are important, material considerations: the flat is below ground level and is in a high flood-risk area, which increases insurance and mitigation needs. Local crime levels are reported as high; prospective buyers should assess security measures and running costs.
This is a leasehold property with 99 years remaining and a ground rent of £260 per year; council tax is very low. The building dates from the early 20th century with solid brick walls and assumed limited insulation, so buyers should factor potential ongoing maintenance and insulation improvements into future budgets.
