A no-chain, two-bedroom ground-floor flat offered for investors with tenants in situ. The layout is efficient across c.614 sqft, featuring a well-equipped kitchen with integrated appliances, built-in storage in the hallway, living room and main bedroom, and a practical three-piece bathroom. The property is double-glazed, gas‑heated with a boiler and radiators, and sits in a modern block completed circa 2003–2006.
Practical ownership features include allocated off-street parking, access to a large communal garden and a long lease (approx. 103 years remaining). The flat’s low council tax band and modest ground rent (£150) help running costs stay competitive for buy-to-let returns. Proximity to Shirley High Street, Southampton city centre, the General Hospital, transport links and the university supports rental demand from students, hospital staff and commuters.
Important considerations: this sale is marketed to investors only and the property is sold with tenants in situ — viewings and vacant possession are subject to tenancy. The area records higher crime and very high local deprivation scores, which may affect tenant profiles and yield risk. The flat is small overall and finishes are functional rather than high-end; potential purchasers should budget for any desired modernisation and factor leasehold pack/legal fees into costs.
Overall, the flat suits a hands-off landlord seeking immediate rental income and long-lease security in a well-connected Southampton location. Investors wanting vacant possession, a different tenant profile, or a low-crime neighbourhood should note these constraints before committing.
