A rare, characterful first-floor apartment on Lymington High Street with substantial internal space and a private south-facing walled garden. The main sitting room impresses with Georgian proportions: high ceilings, parquet flooring, large floor-to-ceiling Georgian window and a feature fireplace with woodburner. The property is offered chain-free and benefits from a long lease (990 years), peppercorn ground rent and an annual service charge of approximately £900.
The accommodation is flexible: a large kitchen/dining room with exposed beams could be retained as a generous kitchen/diner or reconfigured into a second bedroom, creating a true one/two bedroom plan. A double bedroom, sizeable entrance hall and a bathroom complete the flat. Outside, a two-storey brick outhouse offers redevelopment potential (STPP) and a powered bothy provides useful studio or workshop space for home-working or storage.
Important practical points: the apartment is Grade II Listed which may restrict some changes and could complicate refurbishment. The kitchen requires replacement and the bathroom needs upgrading; overall the flat requires renovation to reach its full potential. EPC rating E and Council Tax Band D. The location is highly walkable to shops, restaurants, the quay and the train station, and short-term lets are permitted.
This property will suit a buyer seeking a period home with generous proportions, outdoor space and scope to add value through sympathetic refurbishment — whether as an owner-occupier wanting a prominent town address or an investor looking for holiday-let potential. Be aware of the listing constraints and the need for works before moving in.
