Set within a striking Tudor Revival building, this two-bedroom first-floor apartment offers period character, river views and immediate access to Fordingbridge town centre. The bright dual-aspect lounge with exposed oak beams and a feature fireplace sits adjacent to a kitchen with integrated hob and oven — comfortable and ready to modernise to your taste.
Practical benefits include two allocated off-street parking spaces, a sheltered communal garden with patio and riverside outlook, very low flood risk and a favourable council tax band. The property is offered chain-free and has just under a century remaining on the lease, making it straightforward to purchase.
Important considerations: the apartment is Grade II listed which will restrict external and some internal alterations and may complicate refurbishment. It is leasehold with an above-average annual service charge (£5,397.50) and a £200 ground rent. The building’s timber-frame construction appears to lack modern cavity insulation (assumed) and some rooms show dated finishes that will need updating.
This home suits buyers seeking a characterful, low-maintenance base close to amenities — particularly downsizers or retirees wanting riverside tranquillity near shops and services. Investors should note the high service charge and listed status when modelling returns.
