Summary - Flat 21, Hamilton Court, Ashby Place, SOUTHSEA PO5 3NP
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free seaside-flat with parking and lift in central Southsea.
Two double bedrooms with practical layout
Set on the third floor of Hamilton Court, this two-bedroom apartment offers an immediately liveable layout with allocated underground parking and lift access — ideal for buyers seeking a straightforward move-in. The lounge/diner opens onto a balcony that catches the morning sun and provides distant sea glimpses along Palmerston Road, adding a coastal feel without the seafront price tag. The fitted kitchen and modern shower room keep the property functional and low-maintenance.
Practical running costs include a comprehensive service charge of £2,825.50 per year that covers communal maintenance, lift, buildings insurance and water usage, plus a small ground rent of £50 per year. The lease has approximately 93 years remaining (original term 125 years from 1993), which is adequate but should be checked with a solicitor before purchase. Council tax is described as affordable.
Buyers should note some material considerations: broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow and local crime levels are high. The building and flat otherwise present no flooding risk. This property is being sold chain-free, which can speed completion for first-time buyers wanting a quicker purchase process.
Within minutes of the seafront, cafes, shops, Waitrose and regular bus routes, the apartment suits someone who values central Southsea living with secure parking and a lift. It’s a practical entry point to the area for first-time buyers or investors seeking a lettable, low-maintenance flat close to amenities.
