A bright one-bedroom apartment on the second floor, presented with an open-plan kitchen/living area and a Juliet balcony that brings in natural light. The kitchen is fitted with integrated appliances including washer/dryer, dishwasher and fridge/freezer; the bedroom benefits from an ensuite bathroom and there is a separate cloakroom for guests. Allocated parking and an EPC rating of B add practical appeal.
This leasehold home was built around 2010 and sits approximately one mile west of Winchester city centre and the railway station, offering straightforward access to shops, leisure facilities and transport links. The building has lift access and communal bin and cycle stores, making day-to-day living convenient.
Important purchase considerations: the apartment will be sold at public auction on 17 July 2025; the lease has about 107 years remaining. Annual service charges are approximately £2,890 and ground rent is £150 (scheduled to increase to £300 in 2031). Heating is by electric storage heaters, which may affect running costs compared with gas central heating.
This property suits a downsizer or single buyer seeking a low-maintenance city base with good transport links, or an investor looking for a modern, well-located leasehold flat. The no-chain status and ready-to-move-in presentation are positives, but factor in service charges, future ground rent increase and electric heating when assessing overall value.
