This ground-floor two-bedroom flat in Charminster offers a compact, lettable asset in a well-connected part of Bournemouth. Recent repainting and recarpeting, double glazing and a modern bathroom reduce immediate refurbishment needs, while a private entrance and communal garden add tenant appeal. At about 451 sq ft, the apartment is small but laid out traditionally with two double bedrooms and a sizable lounge.
The property is presented with conflicting position notes: it is described both as vacant and as a buy-to-let achieving £950 pcm with tenants in situ. Buyers should confirm current occupancy and tenancy terms. The lease has approximately 88 years remaining; service charge is £865 (noted as below average) and ground rent is £10—budget for ongoing leasehold costs and future lease extension costs.
This is a straightforward investment or starter purchase in a post‑war block (built 1967–75) with on-street parking, good broadband and excellent mobile signal. It suits investors seeking an immediately lettable unit with low short-term maintenance, or a first-time buyer comfortable with leasehold ownership and modest living space. Verify occupancy status, rental documentation, and lease-extension projections before committing.
