Effortlessly positioned on Eastern Parade, this second-floor, three-bedroom corner apartment delivers genuine seaside appeal with southerly aspects over the Solent and Isle of Wight. The long double-aspect living/dining room opens onto a balcony, making the most of sunlight and those coastal views — a clear premium for buyers seeking location and outlook. The block provides lift access, communal gardens and a private garage, with the convenience of a short walk to Southsea seafront and local amenities.
The flat is offered with a 999-year lease and a share of the freehold, reducing long-term leasehold complexity. Central gas heating is run via a community scheme and its cost is included in the annual service charge, which also covers communal maintenance. The fitted kitchen includes integrated appliances and there are two bathrooms, useful for family living or sharers.
Buyers should be aware of the material running costs: the reported service charge is relatively high (approx. £4,719.73 pa) and council tax falls in band E, both of which affect ongoing affordability. The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and, while generally described as well maintained, details such as the age of the double glazing are unspecified — some modernisation/decoration may be desirable depending on buyer standards.
This apartment will suit downsizers who prioritise seaside living and ease of access, families wanting proximity to local schools and the promenade, or buy-to-let investors drawn to strong location-driven demand. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the outlook, room proportions and the communal facilities offered by this mid-century development.
