This ground-floor studio in Portchester offers a practical, well-lit living space with a private front garden and plentiful built-in storage. The apartment is neutrally decorated and benefits from double glazing, low service charges and very low council tax (Band A), making running costs affordable for a single occupant or downsizer.
The layout is straightforward: a generous living/bedroom area with an open kitchen and a separate shower room. The property is heated by electric room heaters and is ideal for someone seeking a move-in-ready, low-maintenance home close to local shops, bus links and nearby schools.
Important lease information affects marketability: 77 years remain on the lease. Many mortgage lenders restrict lending on flats with short leases, so this property will suit cash buyers, purchasers able to extend the lease prior to purchase, or buyers prepared to investigate specialist lending. Service charge is low (£96 p.a.), but leasehold running costs and the process to extend the lease should be clarified before offer.
Overall this is a straightforward, affordable studio for a buyer prioritising location, low ongoing charges and ease of occupation. It presents potential for modest improvement or reconfiguration, but any buyer should factor in the lease length and electric heating when assessing long-term value.
