The apartment is within easy walking distance of Southampton Central railway station, providing direct connections to London and other major destinations, whilst the city centre offers an extensive selection of shops, cafés, bars and restaurants. Ocean Village and the waterfront are also nearby, providing a fantastic choice of restaurants, leisure facilities and scenic walks along the marina.

Sellers Comments : One of the standout features of this apartment is its exceptional outlook, with direct views across the park and no buildings or neighbouring flats directly overlooking the property, offering a rare sense of privacy for such a central location. The south-westerly aspect allows the apartment to enjoy fantastic evening sunlight and beautiful sunsets, while the open green space creates a wonderful connection with the outdoors. For those who enjoy watching the world go by, you can even catch glimpses of cruise liners and container ships as they make their way out to sea. However, perhaps the most impressive feature of all is the incredible ceiling height of almost four metres, complemented by large windows that flood the apartment with natural light and create a wonderful feeling of space and character.
