Description
Ideal for owner-occupation or investment, enjoying an exceptionally convenient location close to The Seafront and Southsea Town Centre, this purpose-built FIRST FLOOR STUDIO APARTMENT benefits from gas central heating, replacement double-glazing, equipped kitchen, secure entry, and useful storage. Moments only from the charming Castle Street Conservation Area, Little Southsea Street is tucked away quietly to the west of Great Southsea Street, less than half a mile from Palmerston Road Shopping Precinct and a similar distance from The Seafront. This popular residential address places a wide range of public amenities within comfortable reach, including: leisure and recreation facilities, main-line station, schools, university campus, and the many historic attractions of maritime Old Portsmouth. Flat 12 is one of just four similar units within a detached, two-storey, post-war building, having brick elevations under a pitched and tiled roof, standing at right-angles to the road and approached via a lawned courtyard. This appealing opportunity, modestly priced for its position, is considered well-suited to owner-occupiers (including first time buyers and those down-sizing) or to investors with future letting in mind (having a potential income of around £775 p.c.m., equivalent to a gross yield of some 8% p.a.).
