Highly sought-after seafront location for this unusually spacious three bedroom first floor apartment with private garage, sun balcony, lift service, secure entry, double-glazing, communal central heating and delightful outlook. A truly rare and desirable opportunity available now with no onward chain. Widely regarded as the area's premier residential address, Eastern Parade runs from The Canoe Lake to St Georges Road, parallel to Eastney Esplanade and some one mile only from Southsea Town Centre (Palmerston Road Shopping Precinct) with its wide range of public amenities. Cresta Court is a prestigious late-1960s' four-storey development of just twenty-four apartments, No. 4 itself being positioned within the building's prime west wing, windows to the south and west ensuring a bright interior, those to the front enjoying very attractive views towards Southsea Tennis Club, cricket ground and gardens, with significant glimpses of The Solent beyond. Apartment has been well cared for, but would reward an element of refurbishment, now presenting an appealing blank canvas for the implementation of an incoming owner's personal tastes and ideas.
