This newly renovated one-bedroom apartment on Romsey Road offers a compact, modern home ideal for a first-time buyer or city-based professional. The open-plan living and fitted kitchen with integrated appliances create a bright, usable space; allocated off-street parking and lift access add everyday convenience.
Practicalities are straightforward: the flat is leasehold, about 452 sq ft, and heated by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating. The building sits close to Southampton General Hospital and local shops and transport links, making it a sensible choice for someone working nearby or seeking easy commuting.
Be clear-eyed about trade-offs. The property is in an area assessed as very deprived, which may affect resale prospects and local services. Heating is electric room heaters, which can mean higher running costs compared with gas systems. Buyers should also note the sale process includes an online identity check fee (£80 inc. VAT) payable in advance.
Overall, this apartment is a low-maintenance, modern city home with immediate move-in appeal for buyers prioritising location and convenience. It suits someone wanting a practical, compact base close to hospitals, transport and local amenities, and who accepts leasehold ownership and electric heating.
