Commanding TRULY DELIGHTFUL MARITIME VIEWS and enjoying an historic, sought-after setting where opportunities to live are rare, this well-appointed and attractively presented THREE DOUBLE BEDROOM SECOND FLOOR CHARACTER APARTMENT benefits from gas central heating, equipped kitchen and useful separate utility room. Grand Parade has been one of the area's largest open spaces since the town was founded, showing on maps since 1540. Immediately off the main High Street, it stands in the very heart of this much desired enclave, with ready access to its many attractions, including: Portsmouth Grammar School, St Judes Primary School, Gunwharf Quays leisure and retail complex, Spice Island's cafe culture, and the vibrant artists' community of The Hot Walls. Nearby stations (London, Waterloo 1.5 hours) provide good commuting links, whilst Portsmouth and Southsea town centres offer a further wide range of public amenities. Part of an interesting and varied terrace, Grade II Listed 'Aquitaine House' is a four-storey, mid-Victorian property affording just five apartments. Flat C itself boasts a quite superb outlook, its three front rooms having views from their large sash windows across the expanse of the Parade towards The Nelson Monument and historic ramparts, and beyond to the approaches to Portsmouth Harbour, Gilkicker Point, The Solent and The Isle of Wight - a fascinating and constantly changing panorama rivalled by few. Available now to the open market with the further asset of NO ONWARD CHAIN, full details of this desirable home are given as follows and early internal inspection is urged:
