This purpose-built ground-floor apartment offers straightforward, modern living ideal for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The well-presented two double bedrooms, contemporary kitchen and bathroom, and wooden flooring create a ready-to-move-in home with low immediate renovation needs. A private patio off the reception and a single garage in a block add practical outdoor and storage benefits rarely found at this price point.
The property has a long lease (approximately 137 years remaining), gas central heating and double glazing. Annual outgoings include a service charge of £2,151.60 and a nominal ground rent of £10. Council tax is described as affordable and there is no flooding risk. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are reported as strong.
Buyers should note the local context: the flat sits in a cosmopolitan, student-heavy area within a wider neighbourhood described as having migrant families and higher deprivation indices. This brings vibrancy and rental demand but may also mean busier streets and a less family-focused environment. Crime is average for the area.
Overall, this ground-floor flat is a practical, low-maintenance option for someone seeking an entry-level purchase or a rental investment close to Bournemouth town centre and the seafront. The garage, patio and modern finish are clear positives, while the service charge level and local area character are material considerations to weigh before viewing.
