A chain-free, top-floor two-bedroom apartment in the heart of Gosport, offered with a long lease (999 years from 01/01/2014) and a share of the freehold. The property is compact (561 sq ft) and presents a straightforward first-time buy or buy-to-let opportunity, with an estimated rental income of £900 pcm and valid EICR and gas safety certificates in place.
Set in a 1980s red-brick development close to town-centre amenities and public transport, the flat includes two double bedrooms, a separate lounge, small kitchen with combi boiler, bathroom and non-allocated resident parking. The building is mains-gas heated via boiler and radiators and benefits from double glazing (install date unknown) and an EPC rating of D.
Buyers should note this is a top-floor apartment with no lift, and the interior is dated: the kitchen shows wear and would benefit from modernization. The service charge averages £1,207 per year. The immediate area records higher crime levels and is classified among more deprived neighbourhoods, which may affect resale or rental demand for some purchasers.
Overall this is a practical, low-maintenance entry into homeownership or an investor purchase with long lease security and existing safety certificates. It suits buyers willing to accept a compact layout and carry out cosmetic updating to maximise value.
