Compact two-bedroom flat, steps from Southampton Central — ideal for commuters and first-time buyers.
Two double bedrooms in a compact 497 sq ft layout
This modern second-floor flat in Freemantle offers compact, well-laid-out living close to Southampton city centre and the central train station. With two double bedrooms and an open-plan living area with a Juliet balcony, the apartment suits first-time buyers seeking a commuter-friendly base or investors after a city-centre rental. The fitted kitchen and bathroom are contemporary and ready to use, keeping immediate move-in costs low.
Practical details are clear: the property is leasehold (lease recently increased to 170 years), comes with one allocated off-street parking space, and covers about 497 sq ft. Annual charges include a service charge of approximately £2,490 and a ground rent of £150. Council tax is described as cheap, which helps running costs.
Be realistic about location and size. The flat is in an area classed as deprived with higher-than-average crime rates, which may affect resale or rental appeal and insurance costs. Accommodation is compact, so it will suit buyers who prioritise location and transport links over large living spaces.
For first-time purchasers and downsizers the property represents a practical, low-maintenance entry into Southampton city living with excellent transport links. Investors should factor in service charges, local area risk profile and tenant demand when assessing returns.
