A bright, modern two-bedroom apartment in Charter House, constructed in 2002 and offered chain free. The open-plan lounge/diner opens onto an extra-large south-facing balcony, with a second covered west-facing balcony for afternoon sun — ideal for relaxed city living or a rental let. Both bedrooms are doubles; the principal bedroom includes an ensuite and there is a separate fully tiled family bathroom.
Practical advantages include allocated off-street parking, lift access to all floors, secure entry, and an EWS1 certificate in place. The apartment sits around 0.5 miles from Southampton city centre and Ocean Village Marina, with plentiful local amenities, strong mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for commuters, students, or home workers.
Notable costs and considerations: the lease has approximately 101 years remaining, the annual service charge is £3,665 and ground rent is £100 per year. The building is in a multicultural, cosmopolitan student neighbourhood and local crime levels are reported as high, which may affect some buyers' priorities. Purchasers should also expect a small online identity-check fee during the buying process.
This property suits first-time buyers seeking a low-maintenance city base with outdoor space, or investors wanting a well-located two-bed apartment with good rental appeal. A full inspection and survey are advised to confirm condition and suitability prior to purchase.
