Description

Presenting a rare and desirable opportunity to add value and to refurbish to personal taste, this superior and spacious TOP (3rd) FLOOR THREE BEDROOM APARTMENT enjoys an enviable Seafront location. NOW IN NEED OF GENERAL MODERNISATION; its many assets include: a private garage, lift service, secure entry, communal central heating, replacement double-glazing throughout, sun balcony, 22ft living room, and TRULY DELIGHTFUL PANORAMIC VIEWS. 'Cresta Court' is a prestigious, late-1960s' four-storey development occupying a prime position upon Eastern Parade which is widely regarded as the area's premier residential address, some one mile only from Southsea Town Centre (Palmerston Road Shopping Precinct) and within comfortable reach of a comprehensive range of public amenities. From its elevated position upon the building's east wing, and with its south and west-facing windows, Flat 24 itself boasts a wonderfully bright and splendid outlook encompassing Southsea Tennis Club, adjacent cricket ground, ornamental gardens, and the wide expanse of The Solent beyond. Available now to the open market for the first time since new, the apartment requires a full programme of modernisation. With the noteable (and valuable) exception of the relatively recent installation of replacement double-glazing throughout, its fixtures and fittings are original. This is an opportunity holding immense potential and reward for an incoming owner seeking a blank canvas project for their own ideas and requirements, the end result being, in our opinion, the creation of one of the finest apartments of its type. Full particulars are given as follows:
