Description
Enjoying a highly sought-after location immediately OFF THE SEAFRONT, this purpose-built TWO DOUBLE BEDROOM 4th FLOOR APARTMENT benefits from a private garage, lift service, replacement double-glazing, gas central heating, secure entry, balcony, and DELIGHTFUL OUTLOOK. Built around 1971, "Chacksfield Court" is an attractive six-storey development comprising twenty apartments. Behind its own lawned garden forecourt, the building stands on the east side of Craneswater Park, close to its junction with St Helens Parade. This prime residential address is a level walk of just a few minutes from The Seafront and open beach, whilst also some three-quarters of a mile only from Southsea Town Centre (Palmerston Road Shopping Precinct) with its wide range of public amenities. From its elevated position, Flat 18 itself commands delightful views to the south and west across Southsea rooftops and landmarks, and towards Canoe Lake Gardens with The Solent and The Isle of Wight beyond - a bright and interesting panorama. Presented in reasonable order throughout, and, with a number of improvements to its original specification, we think it fair to observe that the apartment would reward an element of refurbishment, offering now an appealing and desirable blank canvas opportunity for an incoming owner to implement their own tastes and ideas. Available with the further asset of NO ONWARD CHAIN, full details are given as follows:
