Compact, low‑maintenance home ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
First-floor one-bedroom with separate sleeping area
Set on the first floor of Mitchell House, this bright one-bedroom apartment combines compact, low-maintenance living with a surprising degree of privacy. The open-plan kitchen and sitting room provides a flexible social space, while a separate bedroom gives a quiet sleeping area — an uncommon feature for studio-style homes. The flat benefits from double glazing, off-street parking and access to a communal garden, making day-to-day life convenient.
Practical buyers will appreciate the long 999-year lease and a modest annual service charge of £750. The property is heated by electric storage heaters and runs on mains electricity; this is efficient for low-use homes but may be less economical than gas heating. The apartment’s size (c. 495 sq ft) is ideal for a single occupant, couple, pied-à-terre or investor seeking a well-located rental in SO17.
Located in a mixed student and commuter neighbourhood, the home sits near shops, bars and transport links to Southampton Central and Parkway stations. Local amenities include supermarkets, restaurants and easy motorway access. The building dates from the 1980s and sits within a period streetscape, offering a blend of contemporary interiors and classic surroundings.
Notable points to consider: the flat is leasehold, uses electric storage heating, and is compact in footprint — buyers seeking large living spaces should view with those limitations in mind. For first-time purchasers or investors wanting a low-upkeep property in a desirable part of Southampton, this offers clear practical appeal.
