Bright and compact, this two-double-bedroom first-floor apartment combines period character with modernised fittings, making it a practical choice for first-time buyers. The generous living room with a front box bay and the recently refitted kitchen provide comfortable, move-in-ready accommodation. A private, low-maintenance rear garden and a garage add uncommon outside space for this property type.
The leasehold tenure and service costs are material considerations: approximately 88 years remain on the lease and ground rent is £250 (small). The home sits in an area described as deprived with above-average local crime rates, so buyers should factor location-related issues into their decision and check specifics on service charges and any planned works.
Economy and comfort are supported by mains gas central heating, double glazing (install date unknown) and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal. The property shows evidence of period construction and cavity walls that likely lack added insulation; further energy improvements could be worthwhile. Chain free sale and a short walk (about 0.4 miles) to Southbourne Grove increase its appeal for someone seeking convenience in Bournemouth.
Overall, this is a compact, characterful apartment offering sensible modern updates and private outdoor space. It will suit a buyer looking for an affordable entry into the area or a small-scale investor wanting a ready-to-rent home, provided they are comfortable with the lease length and local area factors.
