Summary - THE VULCAN 18 GUNWHARF QUAYS PORTSMOUTH PO1 3BF
2 bed 2 bath Flat
Spacious 2-bed Gunwharf flat with harbour views, long lease and allocated parking.
Allocated off-street parking included
A striking two-bedroom apartment in the Vulcan Building at Gunwharf Quays, offered chain free and ready to view. The first-floor home centres on a large open-plan living, kitchen and dining space with high ceilings, big arched windows and exposed brickwork that frame views towards the harbour and bring abundant natural light. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite; a second bedroom and a family bathroom complete the layout.
Practical positives include allocated off-street parking, a long lease (174 years remaining) and a substantial total floor area (approx. 1,120 sq ft) for this part of Portsmouth. The building’s Georgian‑Revival character and the apartment’s industrial-loft detailing give the flat immediate kerb appeal and an attractive living environment close to shops, restaurants and the marina.
Buyers should note the material running costs and some building fabric characteristics: an above-average service charge (approx. £3,858pa) and ground rent (£200pa), council tax band E, and electric room heaters rather than central gas heating. The block appears to be solid brick construction with no known insulation (assumed) which may affect heating costs and comfort. The local recorded crime level is higher than average; consider viewing at different times and ask for building security details.
This property suits someone seeking characterful, central coastal living near amenities and the waterfront—equally attractive for lifestyle buyers or investors who want a well‑sized, turnkey apartment with long lease security. Factor in the service charge and heating arrangement when assessing running costs and potential improvements.
