About this property
Situated within a truly unique and historic development in Southsea, this distinctive home forms part of the former Marine Barracks, converted by English Heritage into an attractive collection of modern homes. Combining historic character with contemporary living, the property enjoys a particularly peaceful setting, with attractive views towards the seafront and an excellent location close to the beach and pier.
Arranged over three floors, the property offers versatile and spacious accommodation, making it an ideal home for those seeking something a little different, with the added benefit of being within easy reach of the coast.
The ground floor comprises an integral garage, a separate utility room and a lovely snug/cosy room, providing a particularly versatile additional living space which could be used as a relaxing retreat, reading room or additional reception area.
The first floor offers a spacious sitting/dining room, providing an excellent area for relaxing and entertaining, alongside a separate kitchen area and a useful study, ideal for those working from home.
To the second floor, there are three bedrooms, including a generous master bedroom, together with a bathroom and a separate shower room. The en-suite bathroom is particularly well appointed, benefiting from both a bath and a separate shower with glass enclosure.
Further benefits include a fully boarded loft, providing excellent additional storage space, a working intruder alarm and a boiler approximately five years old, which has recently undergone its annual service. A new shower pump has also been installed.
Location and Development
One of the property's most appealing features is its unique location within this historic gated development. The former Marine Barracks have been sympathetically converted into modern homes, creating a distinctive residential setting with a real sense of character.
The development is particularly peaceful, while being conveniently positioned close to Southsea seafront and the pier. The property also enjoys views towards the sea, adding to its coastal appeal.
Maintenance and Additional Information
The property benefits from maintained communal gardens, with an annual contribution towards their upkeep. The most recently advised annual contribution was £968.
The contribution relates to the freehold responsibilities, including maintenance of the communal gardens and electricity for the development's street lighting.

Buyer Processing Fee:
Once an offer is accepted, a buyer processing fee of £250 is payable before we begin processing the purchase. This contributes towards the administration involved in progressing the purchase and arranging the buyer identity verification checks required under UK Anti-Money Laundering Regulations, which are carried out by our independent third-party provider.
Exclusivity Fee:
You can secure the purchase by paying an exclusivity fee of £2,000. This grants the buyer exclusive rights to proceed with the purchase for the duration of the conveyancing process, during which time the seller agrees to remove the property from the market and not negotiate with other parties.
The £2,000 Exclusivity Fee is returned to the buyer upon successful completion of the purchase. It is also refundable in certain circumstances where the purchase cannot reasonably proceed. The Exclusivity Fee Agreement sets out the full terms, including when the fee may be refunded or retained. It does not constitute an exchange of contracts.
This arrangement provides buyers with reassurance that the property is secured exclusively for them, reducing the risk of gazumping and unnecessary aborted costs
