Description
The site comprises a large, open area that is roughly rectangular in shape and is constructed with tarmac flooring. We understand that the site is an inactive car park that historically served a former office building.
Location
Portsmouth is located approximately 19 miles south east of Southampton and 70 miles south west of London. The city benefits from excellent road communications being situated at the M27/A27 junction, which links to M3 and A3(M) and provides access to London and the wider national motorway network.
The former car park is situated on the east side of Staunton Street, a site that is in close proximity to Commercial Road and the Cascades Shopping Centre. The immediate surrounding area is predominantly residential.
