Set within a purpose-built retirement block close to Southsea seafront, this ground-floor one-bedroom flat offers straightforward, low-effort living for the over-55s. The rear-aspect lounge/dining room and double-glazed windows give a bright, garden-facing aspect, while gas central heating keeps running costs predictable. Vacant possession and no onward chain simplify the purchase.
Accommodation is practical: a fitted kitchen, generous bedroom with built-in wardrobes, and a three-piece wet room with walk-in shower designed for accessibility. Residents benefit from communal gardens, a residents’ lounge and a security entrance phone; a lift serves the block for visitors or those with limited mobility.
Key practical points to consider are that the property is leasehold (length and service charges currently TBC) and communal parking operates on a first-come, first-served basis with a residents’ permit and annual fees. The surrounding area records higher crime levels than average, so buyers should factor local safety and security measures into their decision.
This apartment suits downsizers or retirees seeking a low-maintenance base near the seafront, or investors looking for a straightforward let within an age-restricted scheme. A buyer should arrange their own survey and check lease and charge details before exchange to confirm long-term costs and responsibilities.
