Affordable starter flat with parking and long lease close to shops and ferry.
Chain-free one-bedroom ground-floor flat
A chain-free one-bedroom ground-floor flat in Cockerell Rise offering straightforward entry to the East Cowes market. The apartment has a generous double bedroom, an open reception and a separate kitchen, arranged to make the most of its modest 468 sq ft footprint. Allocated off-street parking and managed communal gardens add convenience and outdoor space.
The flat requires some modernisation: the kitchen is dated (1970s–80s era) and the wet room is serviceable but not contemporary. Service charges average £1,200 per year and there is no ground rent; the long lease (950 years) is a practical advantage. EPC is TBC.
This property will suit first-time buyers wanting a manageable home near local shops, the ferry and seaside amenities, or buy-to-let investors targeting steady demand in the area. Expect renovation costs if you prefer modern finishes, but the long lease and allocated parking reduce common lettings and ownership friction.
Be aware the immediate area scores high on deprivation indices and local crime is average. The outlook is onto communal lawns rather than open views, so buyers seeking coastal panoramas should note the setting is residential and practical rather than scenic.
