A compact two-bedroom second-floor apartment in a quiet, well-treed purpose-built block close to Chandlers Ford amenities and transport links. The flat offers a bright living room, a separate fitted kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom — a straightforward layout suited to buyers seeking a low-maintenance home or an investor looking for rental potential.
Practical advantages include communal grounds, resident off-street parking and an ongoing lease extension process intended to improve long-term value. Service charge and ground rent are modest for the area (approx. £1,100 pa service charge, £60 ground rent), and Council Tax is in a lower band, helping running costs remain manageable.
Important considerations: the apartment is small (approx. 579 sq ft) and requires cosmetic updating and decluttering to reach its potential. The remaining lease (around 79 years) is flagged as short enough to affect mortgage availability for some lenders until the extension completes. The property also relies on electric storage heating and carries a medium flood risk and above-average local crime rates — all factual points to weigh when deciding to view.
For a first-time buyer wanting a low-upkeep starter home, or an investor targeting a let in a popular suburban location with good schools and transport, this flat presents clear value if you budget for modernization and confirm financing options given the lease position.
