This bright two-bedroom first-floor apartment sits 400 yards from the clifftop and beaches at Southbourne and Boscombe — ideal for someone wanting coastal access and local amenities within easy reach. The apartment offers a spacious 17 ft x 16 ft lounge with bay window, a recently refitted modern kitchen/breakfast room, and two double bedrooms. Two allocated off-street parking spaces and well-tended communal grounds add everyday convenience.
Practical features include UPVC double glazing, gas central heating and a 14 ft master bedroom with double-aspect windows. The building contains just four flats on a corner plot, and there is communal storage suitable for bikes. The layout is traditional and the current owner uses part of the hallway as a study area, showing flexible space for working from home.
Important tenure and cost details: the flat is leasehold with 96 years remaining. Quarterly charges total approximately £531.87 for service charge plus £31.25 ground rent and £135.69 property insurance — around £2,127.48 service charge and £125 ground rent per year. Council tax is band C and described as affordable.
Location brings trade-offs: the local area scores as very deprived and recorded higher crime levels than average, which may affect resale and rental demand. The apartment is average-sized overall and largely turnkey, but buyers should consider the remaining lease length and ongoing communal charges when assessing long-term value.
