1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact low-maintenance flat with communal gardens and parking.
First-floor one-bedroom retirement flat with no onward chain
A first-floor one-bedroom retirement flat offered with no onward chain, set within a modern 1980s development in Portswood. The apartment has a 16ft lounge, double bedroom with fitted wardrobes, fitted kitchen and a shower room, plus access to communal gardens, lounge, laundry and off-street parking.
This is a compact, low-maintenance home suited to someone seeking a manageable base near Southampton city centre and local amenities. The EPC B rating and fibre broadband availability are practical positives, while the communal lounge and gardens provide social space without private garden upkeep.
Buyers should note the flat is leasehold with approximately 88 years remaining and uses electric room heaters rather than gas central heating. The kitchen and some internal fittings date from the 1980s and will likely need updating to suit modern tastes. Crime levels in the immediate area are above average, so consider security and location when viewing.
Overall, this property offers simple, ready-to-live-in accommodation for a retirement buyer wanting proximity to shops, transport links and communal support, with clear potential to personalise through modest refurbishment.
