Compact seaside studio ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors.
Chain-free, ready-to-move-in studio after full refurbishment
This compact studio flat in Edmondsham House has been freshly refurbished and is ready to move into. The open, bright living area and modern fitted kitchen create a contemporary, low-maintenance home suitable for a single occupant, first-time buyer, or a straightforward buy-to-let. With double glazing already installed and a 105-year lease, it offers a secure leasehold tenure without immediate legal complexity.
The location is a major selling point: within easy walking distance of Bournemouth town centre, plentiful amenities and award-winning beaches, plus good mobile signal and average broadband for everyday needs. The building is chain-free and the flat’s recent modernisation reduces short-term repair costs, making it practical for someone seeking convenience and quick occupation.
Buyers should note some practical limitations. Heating is by electric room heaters, so running costs may be higher than gas-heated properties. The building’s solid brick construction is assumed to have no wall insulation, which can affect thermal comfort and energy bills. The local area has higher crime rates and higher deprivation indicators; buyers wanting a quieter or more affluent neighbourhood should consider this carefully.
Ongoing costs are clear: an average service charge of £1,567pa and a small ground rent of £100pa. These, together with the leasehold tenure, make this flat most suitable for people prioritising location and move-in readiness over long-term, low-cost running characteristics. For a buyer seeking a compact, modern studio close to Bournemouth’s beach and town amenities, this property presents a practical and affordable option.
