Summary - ATHELNEY COURT, 15 FLAT 18 GERVIS ROAD BOURNEMOUTH BH1 3EE
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact two-bed ground-floor flat near Bournemouth beaches — share of freehold and allocated parking..
Ground-floor two-bedroom apartment, approx. 530 sq ft
Set on Bournemouth’s sought-after East Cliff, this ground-floor two-bedroom apartment offers practical seaside living within easy reach of seven miles of blue-flag beaches and the town centre. The layout is traditional and compact (approx. 530 sq ft), with a separate modern galley kitchen, a living room that opens onto communal lawns, two double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes, and a stylish three-piece shower room. The property includes an allocated sheltered parking space and a share of the freehold — rare for a flat of this size.
The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and benefits from double glazing and mains gas central heating via boiler and radiators. This makes the flat comfortable and immediately habitable for first-time buyers or buyers seeking a well-located lock-up-and-leave home. Proximity to Bournemouth Train Station (under a mile) and local amenities means commuting and everyday needs are convenient.
Buyers should note the apartment’s modest overall size and communal setting; rooms and storage are compact. The block’s cavity walls are uninsulated (as built), which may affect long-term energy efficiency and running costs. Broadband speeds are average. The wider area has a strong student and migrant-family presence and recorded higher-than-average crime levels — important considerations for families or those seeking a very quiet street.
No forward chain simplifies a quicker purchase process. The flat presents a straightforward opportunity for first-time buyers, downsizers who prioritise location over space, or investors targeting short-term lets or city rental demand — provided they weigh the area profile and modest internal space against the excellent East Cliff location.
