Offered to the market with share of freehold and with no onward chain is this totally unique and spacious four-bedroom, duplex penthouse apartment with splendid marina views, and a direct access-controlled lift. Historically part of a beautifully converted Victorian warehouse dating back to 1886, originally constructed as a baggage warehouse during Southampton’s industrial golden age. This stunning building is steeped in maritime history and offers a rare blend of period charm and exclusive modern living, making it the perfect place to sit back and watch small sea craft to majestic cruise liners come and go. A double garage completes the highlights of this property.
A substantial home extending to approximately 227.9 sq. metres (2,454 sq. ft), is arranged over two floors and boasts versatile living spaces, high ceilings, and a wealth of original features. The layout includes two generous reception rooms, three bathrooms (plus two WCs), a well-proportioned office and a utility room. Explore ample scope for working from home or multigenerational living.
On the ground floor the accommodation comprises a welcoming hallway, large open-plan kitchen and dining area ideal for entertaining plus a separate fitted kitchen, spacious living room, the principal bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe and a modern bathroom.
The first floor offers two further bedrooms with ample space and exposed beams adding to its cosy character. A well-appointed office, two bathrooms, an additional WC, utility room and landing complete the upper level.
Location - Located in the heart of Southampton, this property is surrounded by the fascinating echoes of its past. In the late 19th century, the main road outside was once a bustling wharf and railway line. Just opposite, the present day Red Funnel was formerly part of the working docks, where cargo ships and cruise liners would berth. The Royal Pier previously reserved for prestigious and royal visits lies just a short walk away, underscoring the area’s importance in British maritime history.
Whether you are seeking a distinctive home with character and historical provenance, this penthouse apartment presents a rare opportunity to own a slice of Southampton’s rich seafaring heritage.
