A compact, chain-free one-bedroom first-floor flat with its own front door, located a short walk from Fareham town centre and train station. The layout includes a lounge, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom, with double glazing and gas central heating. Communal lawns surround the mid-20th century block and a garage in a nearby block provides secure parking or storage.
The property is offered with a very long lease (948 years remaining) and an EPC rating of C. Annual maintenance/service charge is £1,219.40 and council tax is in Band A, keeping running costs low. The flat’s overall size is small (approximately 342 sq ft) so it suits a single occupant, couple, or an investor seeking a low-entry purchase close to transport links.
This is a straightforward home that will benefit from cosmetic updating and modernisation to reach its full potential. The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and external walls are cavity construction (assumed uninsulated), so buyers should consider insulation and energy-improvement options. Note the local crime level is recorded as above average for the area; viewings and local checks are recommended.
In short, this flat offers low running costs, a long lease, station access and a garage — a practical, affordable option for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor prepared to carry out light refurbishment.
