Set on Southsea seafront opposite Canoe Lake, this sixth-floor two-bedroom apartment offers roomy living with clear seaside appeal. The property’s 917 sq ft layout includes a large lounge, separate kitchen, two double bedrooms, a family bathroom plus separate WC — a practical plan that suits first-time buyers seeking space near transport links, shops and local amenities.
Practical features include double glazing, gas central heating, a lift to the floor and private off-street allocated parking — useful extras for everyday life in a coastal town. The apartment is offered chain free, making it easier to move quickly if you are ready to proceed.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat in a mid-20th-century block (built 1967–75) with cavity walls assumed to have no added insulation; the interior shows dated 1960s fittings and will benefit from modernization. There is one bathroom and a separate WC, and the property sits on a higher floor which may not suit everyone.
Finally, the local area is lively with cafes, shops and schools nearby, but crime statistics for the immediate area are relatively high; factor this into decisions about security and management. Overall this is a roomy seaside apartment with strong location benefits and scope for upgrading to increase comfort and value.
