Imperial Apartments

TO BE SOLD via ONLINE AUCTION. Fees apply.

Set within the magnificent Grade II listed South Western House, this impressive two-bedroom apartment combines contemporary accommodation with the grandeur and character of one of Southampton's most distinctive historic buildings.

Completed in 1872 and originally known as the South Western Hotel, the building was constructed to accommodate passengers travelling via Southampton on the great ocean liners. South Western House has a particularly fascinating maritime heritage and is associated with passengers travelling aboard RMS Titanic.

The apartment itself offers generously proportioned accommodation comprising two double bedrooms, a spacious reception room, fitted kitchen and two bathrooms, including an en-suite to the principal bedroom. The property also benefits from ample storage.

The impressive communal areas further enhance the appeal of South Western House, with Historic England specifically noting the entrance foyer and hall with its marble columns, wall panelling and high moulded ceiling.

Ideally positioned for Southampton's waterfront, Ocean Village and the city centre, the apartment would make an excellent investment opportunity, city residence or pied--terre.
A rare opportunity to acquire a spacious apartment within an iconic Southampton landmark steeped in maritime history.

Early viewing is highly recommended.
