Set just a short walk from Bournemouth town centre and the Blue Flag beaches, this two-bedroom second-floor flat sits within a gated, modern development built in the mid-2000s. At about 524 sq ft the apartment is compact but well laid out: a bright dual-aspect living room, a generous master bedroom and a second room with Velux windows that works well as a home office or spare bedroom. An allocated off-street parking space and secure entry add everyday convenience.
The kitchen is equipped with a gas hob and practical worktop space; the bathroom is fully tiled with a shower-over-bath. Built features include mains gas central heating, double glazing and a long lease (about 104 years remaining). Broadband and mobile signal are strong, suitable for professionals and students needing reliable connectivity.
Be clear about costs and context: the property is leasehold with an average service charge of £1,300 and an annual ground rent of £200. The surrounding area is classified as very deprived with a high local crime rate—factors to weigh for families or those seeking a quieter neighbourhood. Council tax band not provided.
This home will suit purchasers wanting a low-maintenance base close to work, transport links and beaches — ideal for first-time buyers, buy-to-let investors or those seeking a pied-à-terre in Bournemouth. The flat is well-presented but compact, so buyers seeking more space or a quieter street may prefer to look elsewhere.
