This compact one-bedroom apartment sits on the first floor of the Restharrow development, built in 1988 and designed for residents aged 55+. The scheme offers useful communal facilities: residents' lounge, landscaped gardens, guest room, on-site development manager and a 24-hour Appello emergency call system. A lift serves all floors and there is communal parking adjacent to the building.
The flat has an entrance hall, open-plan lounge and kitchen, and a bathroom. Interiors are modest in size and appear neutrally presented, suitable for someone seeking a low‑maintenance retirement base rather than spacious accommodation. Heating is via electric storage heaters and windows are double glazed (installation date unknown).
Practical costs and legal details are important: the lease began in 1988 (noted as a 125‑year term), with a service charge of £2,965.96 p.a. and ground rent of £130.58. Prospective buyers should confirm the exact remaining lease term (records supplied show differing figures) and check any event or management fees that may apply.
Location is central Bournemouth (BH1) in a mixed, cosmopolitan area close to local amenities and transport. The setting overlooks communal grounds and parking rather than a notable view. Note the area has an above‑average crime score and is classed as relatively deprived; this may affect those seeking a very quiet or more affluent neighbourhood.
