Set in a distinctive Victorian block on Dorchester Road, this compact two double-bedroom apartment offers an affordable entry to Weymouth living with surprisingly far-reaching, green outlooks. The bright dual-aspect lounge/diner is the heart of the home, while an elevated kitchen and full bathroom complete the practical layout. Allocated off-street parking adds convenience in a well-connected spot close to Lodmoor Hill shops, frequent buses, the train station and the seafront.
The flat has genuine strengths for first-time buyers or downsizers: two double bedrooms (one with full-width built-in wardrobes), a very long lease with a 1/7th share of freehold, and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal. Internally the condition appears sound and move-in ready; the property footprint is modest at about 359 sq ft, so living space suits those seeking compact, easy-to-run accommodation.
Be factual about the drawbacks: the building exterior is currently undergoing repair works (scaffolding visible) and the estate charges are approximately £125 pcm (£1,500 pa). Holiday lettings are prohibited by the managing arrangement, and pets are allowed only on request. The surrounding area scores as more deprived and shows ageing urban community characteristics, which may affect resale appetite for some buyers.
Overall this is a practical, well-located period-flat option with long lease security and low council tax — a sensible choice for a first-time buyer or someone downsizing who values location and low-maintenance living, provided the modest size and communal maintenance regime fit their needs.
