Freehold
Description
TO BE SOLD BY AUCTION METHOD.
GUIDE PRICE: £1,500,000.
We invite IMMEDIATE CASH OFFERS (on Strict Auction Terms*) from developers and investors for this unique opportunity with immense potential: enjoying a PRIME SEAFRONT LOCATION, this post-war, purpose-built residential development comprises SIX LARGE 2 & 3 BEDROOM APARTMENTS PLUS THREE GARAGES AND OPEN PARKING; available now as a Freehold with FULL VACANT POSSESSION. Dating from the mid-1950s, 'Castleton Court' is a six-storey building having brick elevations under a flat roof with large terrace, its facade incorporating three mid-level balconies. To the front is a deep, walled forecourt parking area, with space for three or four vehicles, whilst to the rear is a detached block of three lock-up garages separated from the main building by an inner courtyard which provides further off-street parking. Within a varied and desirable Conservation Area, the building occupies a prominent position directly opposite Southsea Common, a short distance from the junction of Southsea Terrace with Castle Road, some quarter of a mile only from Palmerston Road Shopping Precinct, and with comfortable access to the wide-ranging public amenities of Southsea town centre and historic Old Portsmouth. Previously let, the six units - one per floor - are served by a passenger lift and offer unusually generous accommodation. Presentation ranges from moderate to good, all having double-glazing and heating. Upper floors command wide-ranging views to the south-west encompassing the approaches to Portsmouth Harbour, The Solent, and The Isle of Wight - a delightful and fascinating panorama. With a projected rental return of around £1,500 p.c.m. per unit (£108,000 p.a.), plus income from the garages, the building offers scope for a gross yield of some 7% p.a. As an alternative to continued lucrative letting, it is felt that refurbishment and disposal of individual apartments is an option, with further potential (subject to the necessary consents) for future site development - perhaps of the garage block, also through the addition of a rooftop penthouse. 'Castleton Court' is a truly exceptional and rare opportunity offering huge reward to a buyer. Full particulars are given as follows and early approaches from Auction-ready buyers are invited:
