About this property
Special seafront apartment with stunning view in characterful Victorian building
Bright, spacious and spotlessly clean top floor apartment with sea views and stunning sunsets in a characterful Victorian building. Originally a townhouse, converted into five split level flats circa 1979.
The apartment is located in central Southsea on the seafront in a conservation area. It has views out to Southsea Common, the Solent, Isle of Wight and Spinnaker Tower. The accommodation is ideal for small families, couples, solo and business travellers.
The apartment is excellently located. It is minutes from Palmerston Road with its many eating places and shopping precinct (including a Waitrose supermarket) and a short walk from Old Portsmouth (15 minutes). Only slightly further away is Gunwharf Quays and the Spinnaker Tower, the Historic Dockyard and Central Portsmouth (20-25 minutes). We’re also minutes from the Isle of Wight Hoverport.
The apartment has large sash windows with wonderful views and stunning sunsets. The accommodation comprises of a large living room with dining area; large double bedroom with Super King size bed, plenty of cupboard space and en-suite wc; a twin room with two full size singles and views to the seafront; a completely new kitchen, fully equipped with everything you might need in a home away from home; and a new bathroom suite with an electric shower. We supply high quality bed linen and towels with our accommodation. The apartment is on the top third floor of the building, there is no lift.
A car is useful but not essential. For those with a car, parking permits are available for parking in the local area. For those without, there is a good local bus and train service. The closest train station is Portsmouth Harbour.
Southsea, Portsmouth is a perfect location for any type of holiday and at any time of year – short city breaks, surprise Valentine’s/ anniversary getaways, Easter holidays, educational half term breaks, summer holidays by the sea, the Great South Run, Christmas and January Sales shopping. There is something for everyone. It is an ideal location for a holiday in Britain no matter what the weather or the time of year.
As well as ideally located for visiting Portsmouth, the apartment is a perfect base for visiting the south coast and key locations further afield – central London is only 90 minutes away by train.
NB Please make sure to read our rental agreement. It contains our cancellation policy, which is preferential and differs from that advertised on this listing. Contact us if you would like to discuss our booking policies in anyway.

What makes this property unique
The apartment is located within a special, typically Victoria building, one of the few left in Southsea with many of its original features. It forms part of the Seafront Conservation Area. It is a residential building with only four other apartments. We're located in the most perfect spot to explore the whole of the city. We're on the doorstep of Southsea Common, minutes away from shops, restaurants, beach walks, Clarence Pier & Funfair and children's playground; and no more than half an hour walk to all of Portsmouth's attractions.
