This ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in Sheridan Court offers an accessible first home or buy-to-let within easy reach of Shirley High Street and Southampton General Hospital. The dual-aspect lounge with bay window and open archway into the kitchen creates a sociable living space, while two double bedrooms and a modern shower room provide practical everyday comfort.
Practical features include residents' off-street parking, communal garden access and double glazing. The property is chain free and benefits from excellent transport links to the city centre, central station and nearby motorways—appealing for commuters and landlords seeking a straightforward let.
Buyers should note this is a small flat on an 89-year lease with leasehold costs: an average service charge of about £2,000pa and ground rent of £250pa. Heating is via electric storage heaters, and the building sits in a higher-crime, more deprived local area—factors that will influence running costs, mortgage criteria and rental demand.
Overall this apartment suits first-time buyers wanting a compact, well-located home to personalise, or investors seeking a simple, chain-free addition to a rental portfolio. Verify lease details and service charge responsibilities with your solicitor before proceeding.
