About this home

* Unexpectedly Re-available * Nestled in one of Southsea's most desirable and tranquil pockets, Flat 6, Helena Lodge enjoys an enviable location on Helena Road. Just moments from the vibrant independent shops, cafes, and restaurants of Albert Road and Palmerston Road, the property balances urban convenience with seaside charm. Best of all, the iconic Southsea seafront and common are within short walking distance, offering an idyllic coastal lifestyle right on your doorstep.

Stepping inside, the sheer scale of this property immediately sets it apart from typical apartment living. The accommodation boasts an incredible size offering a space usually reserved for houses rather than apartments, making it perfect for both comfortable everyday living and effortless entertaining. Outside, a communal garden provides a relaxing retreat and the apartment comes complete with allocated parking.

Adding further value is the opportunity to extend upwards into the sizeable loft area, subject to planning permission (sttp). Converting this substantial overhead space allows an ambitious buyer to dramatically maximise the accommodation, potentially adding extra bedrooms, a stunning master suite, or a spectacular home office. It represents a rare chance to customise and elevate an already impressive residence into a truly exceptional Southsea home.
