Set on sought-after Hill Lane, this top-floor one-bedroom flat in Ayes Court is offered share of freehold and comes with allocated parking and no onward chain. The layout includes a double bedroom, bright living room, modern-fitted kitchen and a bathroom—compact, well-presented accommodation that suits a first home or buy-to-let purchase. The block dates from the 1930–1949 period and shows attractive red‑brick, period character externally.
Practical benefits include a remaining lease of c.89 years, no ground rent under the share‑of‑freehold arrangement, and an indicated rental range of £900–£950 pcm. The service charge is notable at about £1,787 per year—prospective buyers should verify what this covers. Heating is via electric storage heaters and the property has double glazing; the building appears timber framed as originally built, which may mean limited wall insulation.
Buyers should note material points plainly: the property sits in an area with above‑average crime and higher local deprivation indices, the EPC is mid‑range (E), and the service charge is comparatively high for a one‑bed unit. Also confirm lease documentation and any additional leasehold-related fees prior to purchase. For a first-time buyer or investor prepared to accept electric heating and manage future retrofit or refurbishment, this flat offers a convenient, centrally located entry into the Southampton market.
