A bright, well-presented one-bedroom apartment on Southampton High Street, offered chain-free and ideal for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The third-floor flat sits in a recent development and benefits from lift access, double glazing, built-in wardrobes and an open-plan living area that makes efficient use of 349 sq ft.
The location is the apartment's strongest asset: city-centre living within easy walking distance of Town Quay, Ocean Village Marina, West Quay and a wide choice of cafés, shops and nightlife. Recent external remediation work was completed in February 2025 and an EWS1 certificate has been issued to leaseholders, removing a common block-level concern for modern buildings.
Practical costs and specifications are straightforward: a lease with 107 years remaining, annual service charge around £1,400 and ground rent of £150 (next review/increase Jan 2032). Heating is electric via room heaters; there is no communal gas. The apartment’s compact size suits single buyers or couples seeking low-maintenance city living, but may feel tight for those needing more storage or living space.
Overall this is a convenient, move-in-ready city flat with secure recent remediation history and clear running costs. Buyers should verify service charge and lease details with their solicitor and note the property’s small footprint and electric heating when comparing alternatives.
