- Spacious reception room with feature arch and storage
- Modern kitchen and stylish main bathroom
- Share of freehold with 996-year lease remaining

This spacious first-floor apartment offers two generously sized double bedrooms and is ready to move in — ideal for first-time buyers seeking space and convenience. The reception room’s feature arch gives a touch of period character and useful storage, while the modern kitchen and stylish main bathroom keep day-to-day living straightforward.
Practical benefits include an en-suite shower room to the second bedroom, an allocated off-street parking space, and a share of freehold with an effectively very long lease (996 years remaining), giving long-term security. The property occupies a large footprint (approximately 944 sq ft) in an Edwardian building close to Bournemouth town centre, beaches, shops and transport links — strong lifestyle advantages for city-coastal living.
Be aware of a few material points: heating is via electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas and may not suit all buyers. The building’s timber-frame construction is assumed to have no insulation as built, so buyers should factor potential insulation or upgrade costs. The immediate area records above-average crime and high deprivation indicators, which may affect resale or lettings decisions.
Overall, this move-in-ready apartment combines period character, modern fixtures and convenient parking in a prime BH1 location. It will particularly suit first-time buyers wanting space, coastal access and a long lease position, while those sensitive to energy costs or neighbourhood statistics should investigate further.
