This chain-free first-floor apartment offers an affordable entry into Yeovil with practical living spaces and long lease security. The flat includes two double bedrooms, a sitting room opening onto a small balcony, a fitted kitchen and a shower room. There is useful external storage at ground level plus an extra cupboard immediately outside the apartment door.
The property benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing, and a 177–178 year lease remaining, which removes common leasehold concerns. Service charges (including ground rent) were £899.65 last year and council tax sits in Band A, keeping running costs low.
The interior requires renovation—particularly the shower room—and would reward a buyer able to update finishes and fixtures. Communal gardens provide outdoor space, while fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit working from home. Local schools are rated Good, but the surrounding area is described as very deprived with higher-than-average crime and a concentration of renters, which will influence resale and rental demand.
Overall this apartment suits a buyer looking for an inexpensive, chain-free purchase with refurbishment potential or an investor targeting low-entry acquisitions. Be realistic about the neighbourhood context and the need for cosmetic and functional updating when considering the purchase.
