This first-floor, two-bedroom apartment in New Forest Village offers a modern, ready-to-move-in home ideal for a first-time buyer or investor. At about 675 sq ft the open-plan lounge/dining area with a Juliette balcony brings natural light and a flexible living layout. Constructed post-2012 with double glazing and a long lease (137 years), the property is low-risk for flooding and close to shops, transport links and several well-rated local schools.
Practical running costs and responsibilities are clear: the flat uses electric room heaters (no gas central heating), service charges run at roughly £1,100 per year and ground rent is £200 per year. These ongoing costs, plus the apartment’s modest overall size, are important to factor into affordability and budgeting. The council tax band is inexpensive.
Externally the development is modern and well maintained with allocated off-street parking and tidy communal areas. The layout, two double bedrooms and two bathrooms (one en-suite) make the flat straightforward to live in or to let. Good broadband and mobile signal suit remote working and connectivity needs.
Buyers should note a practical downside: local recorded crime is above average for the area. Prospective purchasers who value low-maintenance modern living, easy commuter access and a long lease will find this a sensible, competitively priced option, but those prioritising lower running costs or quieter streets may want to compare alternatives.
