This compact one-bedroom first-floor flat on Bitterne Road West offers a ready-to-move-in city base with a rare private rear garden. The open-plan kitchen/lounge and well-designed layout make efficient use of the apartment’s modest 377 sq ft, creating comfortable, low-maintenance living for a single occupant or couple. Neutral décor and modern fixtures mean no immediate works are required.
Practical running notes: the property uses electric storage heating and is cavity-walled with no confirmed insulation, so heating costs may be higher than gas-heated homes. It is leasehold (approx. 115 years remaining) with an annual service charge and ground rent; these ongoing costs should be factored into affordability calculations.
Location is a strong selling point — about 1km from Bitterne rail station, close to frequent bus routes and M27 access for commuters. Local schools and riverside green spaces add appeal for first-time buyers and downsizers seeking city convenience with nearby nature. Crime levels are above average locally; buyers should consider security measures.
This property suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors looking for a low-maintenance, chain-free purchase with immediate occupancy. Small internal size limits furniture options but keeps upkeep straightforward; the garden is a notable bonus for an apartment in this area.
