Spacious, chain-free flat with balcony and permit parking in central Southampton.
Chain-free one-bedroom apartment with private balcony and elevated dock views
This chain-free one-bedroom apartment in Telephone House offers a spacious, modern city-centre home with a private balcony and elevated views toward the docks and Solent. The open-plan living/kitchen benefits from floor-to-ceiling glazing, integrated appliances and useful built-in storage throughout, creating an easy-maintenance home for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor.
Practical details are straightforward: the flat is leasehold with 105 years remaining, double glazing, an EWS1 certificate in place and permit parking available in the rear car park. The building has lifts, secure entrances and was converted in the mid-2000s, so construction and communal areas are relatively recent.
Buyers should note the material running and ownership costs: an annual service charge around £3,108 and ground rent of £200. Heating is by electric room heaters, which can mean higher energy bills compared with gas-fired systems. The apartment sits within a lively, cosmopolitan student neighbourhood — convenient for shops, transport and amenities but potentially busier and noisier at term times.
Overall this is a roomy, low-maintenance city apartment with good storage, a balcony and straightforward access to Southampton’s services. It will suit first-time buyers looking for an easy central home or investors seeking city-centre rental potential, provided they accept leasehold costs and electric heating considerations.
