Summary - 34 FIRST FLOOR FLAT ST MARYS ROAD BOURNEMOUTH BH1 4QP
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain‑free two-bedroom home with private garden and long lease.
Two double bedrooms in a character first‑floor flat
A well‑positioned first‑floor flat with genuine starter‑home credentials: two double bedrooms, a separate fitted kitchen and a lounge/dining room in a character building. The long lease (900+ years) and freehold title remove typical leasehold concerns and make the purchase straightforward. Council Tax band A and an EPC C help keep running costs low.
The flat is compact (approximately 589 sq ft) but practical, with gas central heating, double glazing and a private rear garden — rare for a first‑floor apartment and useful for pets or outdoor storage. There is non‑restricted on‑street parking and the building contains just two flats, so management is informal but straightforward.
Important practical notes: the service charge is split 50/50 with the ground‑floor flat and paid “as and when,” so occasional shared costs may arise. The property sits in a relatively deprived area, which may affect resale timing and nearby amenities, though it benefits from excellent transport links, local schools, JP Morgan, the hospital and parks within easy reach. The flat is offered chain free and allows pets, making it an accessible purchase for first‑time buyers or buy‑to‑let investors seeking immediate occupancy or let potential.
Overall, this is a compact, characterful flat with long lease security, outdoor space and low running costs — a practical choice for someone wanting a convenient Bournemouth base with scope to personalise.
