Forming part of the prestigious former Royal Marine Barracks, 'The Armoury' sits within one of Southsea's most exclusive residential developments. Surrounded by beautifully landscaped communal grounds, magnificent Grade II listed architecture and with direct access onto Eastney Beach, it offers a truly exceptional coastal setting steeped in history. Occupying the ground floor and benefiting from its own private entrance, this outstanding two-bedroom apartment has been comprehensively refurbished by the current owners to an exceptional standard.
Every detail has been carefully considered, combining high-quality finishes with an impeccable eye for interior design to create a home that is both elegant and inviting. The grandeur of the original building is immediately apparent, with impressive ceiling heights and magnificent sash windows fitted with bespoke half-height shutters, allowing natural light to pour into the beautifully proportioned living spaces while enhancing the apartment's period character. Further benefits include free residents' parking, access to expansive manicured grounds, and free use of tennis court, the remainder of a 999-year lease and a Share of the Freehold, making this a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully restored home within one of Southsea's most sought-after landmark developments.
