Never heard of Thomas Ellis Owen? Maybe not, but you will certainly recognise the Southsea landmarks this 19th Century architect designed. His early work shows the influence of John Nash who designed the neo-classical terraces in and around Regents Park in London, reputed as being an habitant of Clearwater Apartments, when it was formerly arranged as five impressive townhouses, which were believed to have been built in circa 1860. The building was converted into flats with No.13 being on the top floor, it has a benefit of outstanding views from the apartment itself but also the advantages of having its own private roof terrace with outstanding panoramic views over the City of Portsmouth, towards Portsdown Hill, the Solent, Napoleonic forts, the Isle of Wight and Hayling Island. The property comprises: Hallway with spiral staircase leading to roof terrace with panoramic views, kitchen, two bedrooms, bathroom and living room.
