This no‑forward‑chain ground floor split‑level maisonette offers roomy, practical accommodation in walking distance of Southsea seafront and Eastney Marina. The property comprises a bright living room, a kitchen/breakfast room, three bedrooms and a modern bathroom over two levels — a sensible layout for first‑time buyers or buy‑to‑let purchasers.
Practical features include double glazing, off‑street parking managed by the block (annual fee applies), and useful external push‑bike storage. The lease has about 106 years remaining, and similar flats in the area achieve around £1,100–£1,200pcm, underlining its rental potential.
Be clear about the material considerations: this is a leasehold home with a service charge (c. £1,430pa) and a small ground rent (£200pa). Heating is electric via room heaters rather than gas central heating, and the block dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s with timber‑frame walls and assumed partial insulation — further investment in heating or insulation may be worthwhile.
Internally the bathroom is described as modern, while the kitchen shows mid‑century fittings and some wear; a modest update to the kitchen would improve long‑term comfort and rental appeal. Pets are not permitted under the head lease. Overall, the property represents an affordable entry into Southsea living or a straightforward rental purchase close to the coast.
