Summary - 8 FALCON CLOSE FAREHAM PO16 8PL
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact garden apartment with parking and long lease in a quiet cul-de-sac.
Ground-floor one-bedroom apartment, 388 sq ft
A compact, ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in a quiet cul-de-sac, suited to first-time buyers, downsizers or buy-to-let investors. The property offers the rare combination of its own paved garden, an allocated off-street parking space and low running costs — council tax is very cheap and the gas boiler and central heating were replaced in 2020.
At about 388 sq ft the layout is compact and linear: porch into lounge/diner, fitted kitchen to the front, one double bedroom and a bathroom. Its front aspect overlooks nearby playing fields, and double glazing is already fitted (pre-2002). The 144-year lease and absence of service charge or ground rent simplify ownership for leasehold buyers.
The apartment is in a largely affluent, low-crime area with fast broadband and good mobile signal, close to several well-rated primary and secondary schools and local bus links. Constructed in the 1980s, the building is conventional brick with cavity insulation assumed.
Important drawbacks: the property is small and will suit buyers comfortable with limited storage and living space. Some fixtures and finishes are dated and may need modernising over time. While the long lease and no service charges are positives, this is a ground-floor flat in an ageing urban neighbourhood — prospective buyers should view to assess space and condition in person.
