Enjoying an exceptionally convenient and sought-after SEAFRONT LOCATION just moments from Southsea Town Centre, and available at a highly competitive asking price, this well-presented ONE BEDROOM THIRD FLOOR RETIREMENT APARTMENT, benefits from excellent shared amenities, whilst also boasting delightful westerly views across The Common towards the approaches to Portsmouth Harbour, Gilkicker Point, The Solent, and The Isle of Wight. Constructed in 1987 by the well-known specialist company, McCarthy Stone, "Homeheights" is a superior, high-rise development tailored specifically to the needs of retired persons (the minimum age for occupancy being 60 years). The building occupies a prominent position directly opposite Southsea Common, adjacent the stylish Queens Hotel, and a level walk of some 350 yards only from Palmerston Road Shopping Precinct. Amenities, both shared and individual, are truly wide-ranging, to include: communal gardens and car park, twin lifts, secure entry, games room and observation deck, residents' lounge and laundry room, guest suite, double-glazing, and equipped kitchen. Available now to the open market with the further asset of NO ONWARD CHAIN, and priced to sell by the motivated Vendor, full particulars of this opportunity are given as follows and early enquiry is invited:
