This top-floor, one-bedroom apartment in Bournemouth town centre offers bright, south-facing living and lift access within a substantial mixed-use block. The flat is chain-free with a long lease (around 171 years remaining), communal heating and hot water included in the service charge, and residents’ permit parking on a first-come, first-served basis. Its location places shops, transport links and the beach within easy reach, suiting a buyer seeking a convenient coastal base or a rental investment.
The accommodation requires renovation and modernisation; interiors are dated and some updating is needed to bring fixtures, fittings and finishes up to contemporary standards. Service charge and ground rent are notable ongoing costs (service charge c. £3,720 pa; ground rent £120 pa). The property benefits from lift access, secure entry, and a caretaker service, but the communal heating is run via a shared boiler system, which may limit individual control and could affect costs long-term.
Buyers should note the immediate area is classified as a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood and crime levels are recorded as very high, which may influence suitability for some purchasers and affect lettings. Conversely, the long lease, town-centre location and proximity to Bournemouth beach offer clear attractions for first-time buyers, downsizers or investors prepared to refurbish and manage the location considerations.
