Summary - Lingwood Close, Southampton, Hampshire, SO16 SO16 7GF
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Ready-to-move-in apartment with garage and balcony in sought-after Bassett.
Long lease (approx. 939 years) and share of freehold tenure
Step into a bright two-bedroom flat in Bassett, Southampton, set in a mid-century apartment building. The open-plan lounge/diner leads to a private balcony, creating pleasant indoor-outdoor flow for everyday life and casual entertaining. A separate contemporary kitchen and an additional W/C add practical convenience for shared living.
Practical strengths include a long lease (approx. 939 years), share of freehold tenure, a private garage and on-street parking. Council tax is described as cheap, broadband speeds are fast, and mobile signal is excellent — useful for remote working or streaming. The area is very affluent with low crime and strong local schools nearby, including outstanding-rated secondaries.
Notable considerations: heating and main fuel are electric (boiler and radiators), and the cavity walls are assumed to have no insulation, which may affect running costs. There is a regular service charge (approximately £1,380 per year). Rooms are small-to-medium, and there is a single family bathroom plus a separate W/C, which may be limiting for larger households.
This flat will suit first-time buyers or investors seeking a well-located, low-risk urban property with long-term tenure and improvement potential. It’s a comfortable, move-in-ready base with clear opportunities to upgrade efficiency or personalise the interior.
