A secure, chain-free first-floor apartment in a gated Park Gate development, offered with a long lease of 134 years. The living room opens to a compact, modern kitchen; the principal bedroom includes fitted storage and an en-suite, plus there is a separate guest WC and two additional fitted cupboards. Allocated off-street parking and a south-east facing communal outdoor space add practical benefit.
This unit is currently let (tenant in situ), making it suitable for buy-to-let investors seeking immediate rental income. Service charge and ground rent are modest for a gated development (service charge approx. £1,049 p/a; ground rent £250 p/a), while council tax is described as very cheap. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and there is no flood risk.
Location is a clear advantage: close to Middle Road shops and eateries, a short drive to Whiteley Shopping Centre, and convenient for Junction 9 of the M27 — ideal for commuters. Nearby primary and secondary schools include several rated Good or Outstanding, which supports rental demand from families and professionals.
Notable drawbacks are straightforward: the property is leasehold, in a wider area with higher crime levels, and the communal outdoor space and private external amenity are modest. The layout and overall size are average (approx. 473 sq ft), so purchasers should expect a compact one-bedroom home rather than a larger flat. Investors should review tenancy terms and income when assessing yield.
