Description
Welcome to an exceptional opportunity to purchase a beautifully presented one-bedroom apartment on the third floor of the prestigious South Western House, Dock Gate 4. This magnificent Grade II listed landmark, dating back to the 1800s, blends historical grandeur with modern living, offering the perfect city-centre home or investment in the heart of Southampton.
This apartment offers an attractive investment opportunity, as there is a long-standing tenant in residence and would be keen to remain should the purchaser wish to continue letting the flat. This provides the potential for immediate rental income with no void period, making it an appealing proposition for buy-to-let investors. For those looking to occupy the flat themselves, the tenant is on a rolling monthly contract.
The property is competitively priced to reflect its above-average annual service charge, a cost that reflects the specialised care and strict regulations required to preserve the building¿s remarkable historical and architectural integrity.
Inside, the apartment features a spacious double bedroom filled with natural light. The modern fitted kitchen, open-plan to the living room, creates a welcoming and well-proportioned space for both relaxing and entertaining. The elegant bathroom is tastefully finished and maintained to an excellent standard.
Residents enjoy the grandeur of the building¿s stunning main foyer with marble walls and painted feature ceilings, as well as lift access to all six floors. Additional benefits include, secure allocated parking, communal reading room for residents, concierge service for security and convenience
A building rich in history: Constructed in 1865 and acquired by the London and South Western Railway Company in 1871, South Western House famously hosted affluent passengers of the Titanic in 1912. More recently, it has been sensitively refurbished by Berkeley Homes Ltd and Bayview Homes, now housing luxury apartments with views across the water and Queens Park.
Located in Southampton's historic dockland area, the property is just a short stroll to Oxford Street with its vibrant choice of restaurants and bars, and within easy reach of the M27. Southampton Central and Parkway stations provide direct connections to London Waterloo and the New Forest.
Early viewing is highly recommended to appreciate this unique home and the lifestyle it offers. Contact Goadsby estate agents today to arrange your appointment.
