This beautiful 2 bedroom flat occupies the entire top floor (2nd floor) of a lovely Grade II listed building on the High Street of Old Portsmouth. It is just 3 minutes walk to the new Ravelin Sports Centre and 5 minutes walk to the University Library. It is also just a short walk from Gunwharf Quays, which has many restaurants, cafes, bars, cinemas and shops, and within walking distance of the Historic Dockyard, Portsmouth Harbour Rail Station, The Hard Bus Station and the seafront.
The layout is quite unique – it is a U shaped flat with views over the picturesque High Street at the front, over the rooftops towards the sea at the back, and more views over houses to the side.
There are two double bedrooms - the smaller room accommodates a double bed, study desk, wardrobe and shelves, and the larger room is huge - about twice the size of a usual double room. There is an open plan kitchen and dining/sitting room, and a bathroom with shower over bath.
There are only 4 flats in the building, so it feels private and quiet. The flat is currently offered furnished, but the landlord is willing to consider a part furnished or unfurnished rental for a long term tenancy - please ask for details if you prefer to provide your own furniture. The property will be professionally cleaned before each new tenancy.
The property is let and managed directly by the owners. Background:
“My husband and I moved to Portsmouth 18 years ago, and we have professional jobs in the NHS and public sector. We bought the flat seven years ago and we love it because it is so bright, spacious and full of character. The flat would be ideal for a couple or professional sharers, and university students would be considered too – it is worth noting that both rooms are double, but given that the master bedroom is massive, we are open to allowing sharers to split the rent according to room size.
We have made ongoing improvements to the flat over the years, including redecoration and new carpets, and we have changed many of the appliances recently including the fridge, cooker and washing machine.
All paperwork is up to date including EICR electrical certificate.
We will be at the property to conduct viewings and meet prospective tenants on Thursday 30th Jan, between 12.30 and 2.30 pm. If you’d like to come along, please feel free to get in touch, and we’d be happy to reserve a viewing slot for you on that day. If you can't make it at that time, please enquire as it might be possible to arrange a time on a different day."
Notes:
The Landlord is offering a 12 month tenancy, but is willing to consider shorter lets (eg 6 or 9 months) - please enquire if you are interested.
