Chain-free investment or first home close to shops, buses and university.
Two-bedroom second-floor apartment, approx. 671 sq ft
Set on Wimborne Road, this two-bedroom second-floor apartment is a straightforward buy-to-let or first-home opportunity close to Bournemouth amenities and transport links. Offered chain-free, the flat benefits from good broadband and mobile reception, gas central heating and double glazing. Its 671 sq ft layout offers naturally generous rooms ready for modernisation.
The location is a clear strength: shops, cafes, bus routes and both Bournemouth and Poole connections are on the doorstep. Bournemouth University’s Talbot Campus and several strong secondary schools are within easy reach, making the property suitable for student or professional rental as well as owner-occupiers seeking convenience.
There are important practical considerations. The 82-year lease remaining will require prompt action or negotiation with lenders and may affect mortgage availability. The flat needs renovation to reach contemporary standards, and the surrounding area shows signs of deprivation with higher local crime — factors buyers and investors should weigh when assessing yields or resale potential.
For a buyer prepared to invest in refurbishment, this apartment offers scope to add significant value through cosmetic upgrades and reconfiguration. Ground rent is modest at £200 per annum, and the chain-free status speeds up purchase. Viewings are recommended for those looking for an affordable entry into the Bournemouth market or a rental asset with upside.
