This ground-floor two-bedroom flat offers a practical, chain-free entry into the Portsmouth market with a rare private garage and communal garden. The apartment has two double bedrooms, a 13ft reception room and a 10ft kitchen, all with double glazing and gas central heating for reliable comfort. The wet room provides an accessible bathroom layout and the property is presented as average-sized accommodation suited to single buyers, couples or investors seeking a compact flat.
There are important lease and maintenance considerations to note. The property currently has 77 years remaining on the lease; many mortgage lenders may refuse lending against this term. The vendor states the lease will be extended to 999 years on completion, but buyers must obtain written confirmation and solicitor assurances before committing. A Section 20 notice (dated 22 May 2025) has been served for roof works — prospective purchasers should budget for forthcoming communal works and confirm the final cost share.
Service charges run at approximately £1,268.45 per year with annual reviews; council tax is in a low band B. The location on London Road gives easy access to local shops, buses and nearby schools, though road noise is a possibility. Overall this is a sensible, low-maintenance flat with genuine conveniences — best for buyers able to verify lease-extension arrangements or purchasers not dependent on standard mortgage lending.
