This bright two-bedroom apartment on Hill Lane offers a contemporary, low-maintenance home ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The open-plan living area and private balcony face east, bringing morning light into the social heart of the flat. Both bedrooms are doubles; the principal bedroom includes a modern en-suite and built-in storage. Built in the early 2000s, the block benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and a secure communal entrance with lift access.
Practical everyday living is well catered for: an allocated off-street parking space, communal bike store, and well-kept shared areas reduce upkeep. The location is a strong asset — close to Southampton city centre, the mainline train station, and local shops, with good schools nearby and fast broadband and mobile signal.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with approximately 104 years remaining, an annual service charge of around £1,750 and a ground rent of £150. These ongoing costs are typical for managed apartment schemes and should be factored into affordability calculations. The apartment is chain-free, which can speed up a purchase, but the size is average and there is limited external private space.
Overall, the flat presents a straightforward move-in option with modern fixtures and sensible communal services. It will particularly suit someone seeking a convenient city-base with low maintenance responsibilities, or an investor after a well-presented rental close to transport links.
