Quiet luxury is coming to Southsea with the much- anticipated launch of Solent View. Think London styling at the seaside and you start to gain a clear picture of what this delectable mix of penthouse, duplex and one, two and three bedroom seaview apartments will offer.
Top-quality materials and appliances have been curated to ensure the best possible coastal living experience. A spectrum of muted tones, means the spaces feel lighter and brighter. High ceilings, hand-laid wood block flooring and a soothing colour palette mean there is a visual stillness.
I always say you can tell a great deal about a place by the quality of the door furniture and the aged brass handles here do not disappoint. There is no stinting in the specification for the development. Expect Neff appliances with countertops and splashbacks in Calcutta Gold Quartz in the kitchens. Clean lines, covetable lighting and so much space make you want to get your tired old abode on the market as soon as possible so you can move to this delightful new address. Minimum use of materials tends to lead to maximum impact and that is exactly what has been achieved with these new coastal homes. All this means the full impact remains with that view – and boy what a view it is.
The changing nature of the seascape means it will always give you something fascinating to look at whatever the weather, or time of day. From the penthouse position, you get an uninterrupted Solent vista and can expect to see everything from paddle boards to Royal Navy carriers sailing into view.
Not for nothing has Southsea recently been highlighted as the Best Place to Live in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight by Muddy Stilettos, a leading lifestyle site. According to them, “Southsea combines traditional Victorian charms with the kind of edgy, hipster vibes and character you will find in Brighton or Shoreditch.”
While the three penthouse apartments are undoubtedly eye-catching and the remaining 26 apartments would make the perfect seaside residence, the two duplex apartments are just exceptional. High ceilings elevate the feeling of space still further and the living area on the lower level, with access to a cool courtyard, means this will be the perfect party space.
