- 21 ft south-facing lounge/diner, double-aspect and good natural light
- Modern fitted kitchen and contemporary bathroom, move-in ready
- Secure underground parking space and lift to all floors
- Share of freehold with 956 years remaining on the lease
- Service charge £2,880pa; factor into affordability
- Electric room heaters only; higher running costs likely
- EPC D (58); property from 1967–75, cavity walls with no added insulation

A bright third-floor apartment with a long lease and convenient coastal access, suited to first-time buyers or investors. The 21ft south-facing lounge/diner brings generous daylight and pleasant views over mature communal gardens, while the modern kitchen and bathroom make the flat ready to move into. Secure underground parking, lift access and no onward chain add practical value.
Important practical points are straightforward: heating is by electric room heaters (no central gas), the EPC is D (58), and the annual service charge is £2,880. The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and walls are cavity as built (no added insulation assumed), so budget for energy costs and potential future fabric or heating upgrades.
Set back from Christchurch Road, the flat is a short drive to Bournemouth town centre and around half a mile from the cliffs and beaches. Local schools and public transport are close by, though the immediate area records higher crime and deprivation indices, which may affect some buyers’ priorities.
Overall this is an affordable coastal-entry property with secure parking, lift access and a very long lease. It will suit someone wanting a ready-to-live-in home close to the sea or an investor seeking a straightforward lettable unit — but be clear-eyed about running costs and communal charges.
