Summary - 80 CATALINA DRIVE POOLE BH15 1TQ
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Newly renovated one-bedroom flat with air-conditioning, parking and a very long lease.
Long lease (961 years) offering long-term ownership security
This recently renovated one-bedroom flat on Catalina Drive offers a compact, low-maintenance home for a first-time buyer or investor. The interior features a new kitchen, bathroom and flooring, plus air-conditioning for year-round comfort — useful during summer heatwaves. The layout is traditional and designed for modern single or couple living, with ample built-in storage.
Practical advantages include long leasehold security (961 years), below-average service charge (£250), small ground rent (£30) and off-street parking. The shared garden is maintained twice yearly by a gardener, and the property can be offered with furnishings, reducing move-in hassle. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting remote working and streaming.
Be clear that the flat sits in an area with a higher crime rate — buyers should factor this into their decision and consider security measures. The apartment is compact, so space is limited compared with larger homes. Management is shared, with annual service charge reviews and no ground rent review period noted. Overall this is a practical, low-upkeep flat with strong fundamentals for first-time owners or buy-to-let buyers who prioritise location and long lease security.
