Secure, low-maintenance flat close to Bournemouth amenities and transport links.
Southerly aspect with private balcony overlooking communal gardens
A bright first-/second-floor retirement flat with a southerly balcony overlooking well-kept communal gardens, offered with vacant possession and no onward chain. The building provides lift access and gated residents’ parking, making day-to-day life easier for an over-55 owner seeking low-maintenance living near Bournemouth and Westbourne.
The accommodation is practical: entrance hall, living room with balcony, kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom. The communal grounds are unusually generous for a block of this type, creating a private, green outlook. The property’s position on Queens Road gives easy access to local shops, buses and leisure facilities.
Buyers should note material facts honestly: the home is leasehold with 82 years remaining, and the service charge is substantially above average at £4,284 annually. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the main fuel is electricity, which can be more expensive than gas. Crime levels in the area are above average, and individual flats may benefit from modest cosmetic updating.
This flat will suit downsizers or retirees who prioritise a secure building, outdoor space and convenient parking over lower running costs or long lease terms. It may also attract investors targeting Bournemouth’s rental market for older occupants, though the service charge and lease length are important financial considerations.
