No forward chain — vacant and ready to exchange
A chain-free two-bedroom first-floor maisonette with its own private front door, offered with 101 years remaining on the lease. The home sits in a small, well-presented building and offers an allocated off-street parking bay and a private rear garden with side and rear gated access — rare practical benefits for a flat. At around 539 sq ft the layout delivers two double bedrooms, a modern kitchen and a contemporary bathroom; gas central heating and double glazing provide year-round comfort.
This property suits first-time buyers looking for a manageable starter home or investors seeking a let-ready asset in a strong rental area. The council tax band is low and the EPC is around C, which helps running costs. The accommodation’s mid-20th-century construction gives solid bones and straightforward maintenance, and the compact footprint keeps upkeep minimal.
Buyers should note important local and property considerations: the area records higher crime levels and ranks as very deprived, which may affect long-term capital growth and landlord insurance costs. The building’s cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so there is potential to improve energy efficiency if desired. The property is leasehold, so purchasers should review service arrangements and restrictions before committing.
Overall, this maisonette offers immediate occupation potential with modest ongoing costs and clear improvement opportunities for energy upgrades. It’s a practical, low-maintenance choice for a first home or buy-to-let purchase in Gosport, but buyers sensitive to location risk should factor local deprivation and crime data into their decision.
