A compact two-bedroom apartment positioned in the heart of Fareham town centre, offering low-maintenance living and immediate access to shops, transport links and local amenities. The open-plan kitchen/living space and two double bedrooms make efficient use of the 571 sq ft footprint—suitable for a first-time buyer seeking convenience or an investor targeting town-centre rental demand.
Practical, modern finishes include a fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, double glazing and allocated off-street parking. The building is mixed-use with commercial units at ground level, and the flat is accessed via a communal entrance. Mobile signal is excellent and local schools and services are close by, supporting either rental appeal or family practicality on a compact scale.
Buyers should note material considerations: the property is leasehold with approximately 96 years remaining, and an estimated service/maintenance charge of about £1,000 per year (building insurance included). Heating is by electric room heaters, which can be more costly than gas systems, and the overall internal area is small—so storage and space will be limited. Local crime levels are above average, reflecting the town-centre setting.
This apartment suits purchasers prioritising location and low external upkeep over large living areas. It presents a straightforward buy-to-let opportunity or a walk-in urban home for someone starting out, but factor in running costs for electric heating and lease/service arrangements when comparing long-term value.
