This ground-floor one-bedroom apartment sits in the heart of Romsey, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a low-maintenance city-centre base. The compact 357 sq ft layout includes a lounge/diner, fitted kitchen, double bedroom with built-in cupboards and a bathroom. The apartment benefits from double glazing and allocated residents’ parking.
The development includes a sheltered communal courtyard and offers immediate possession with no forward chain — useful if you need a quick move. Central Romsey shops, cafes, the Abbey and rail links to Southampton and Salisbury are all within easy walking distance, making everyday errands and commuting straightforward.
Notable practical considerations are the leasehold tenure (92 years remaining) and an average service charge of £1,228 a year. Heating is provided by electric storage heaters and the property is relatively small, so expect modest living space and running costs influenced by electric heating. Local crime levels are reported higher than average, which buyers should weigh when viewing.
Overall this apartment suits a buyer wanting a compact, centrally located starter home or a landlord looking for a town-centre let. It offers convenience, low upkeep and parking, but requires acceptance of a shortish lease for long-term ownership plans and the costs associated with electric heating and service charges.
