Summary - STIRLING HOUSE, 48 - 50 FLAT 5 POOLE HILL BOURNEMOUTH BH2 5PS
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Walk to beaches and shops from this bright two-bedroom flat with letting potential.
Allocated off‑road parking — rare for central Bournemouth
This two-bedroom second-floor apartment sits between Westcliff and Bournemouth town centre, offering a sunny south-facing lounge/diner and allocated off-road parking — a rare find so close to the seafront. High ceilings and bright interiors give the 539 sq ft layout a spacious feel, while a modern separate kitchen and a well-maintained family bathroom make the flat move-in ready.
The property is offered with a new 165-year lease on completion and letting is permitted, making it suitable for first-time buyers seeking a coastal base or investors targeting holiday lets. Its central location places beaches, shops, restaurants and transport links within easy walking distance, and broadband and mobile signal are strong.
Be upfront about the practical downsides: the apartment is small overall, has no external garden, and sits in an area with a very high crime level. Annual service charges average £2,200 (payable bi‑annually), and access to the home is via stairs to the second floor, which may not suit all buyers.
Overall this is a tidy, well-presented period conversion with clear short-term rental potential and genuine lifestyle appeal for anyone wanting convenient seaside living. Buyers should factor in service charges, local crime statistics and the compact floor area when deciding if this central Bournemouth apartment meets their needs.
