A compact lower-ground studio in a Victorian terrace, offered with tenants in situ and immediate rental income. The flat includes a separate fitted kitchen, bathroom, and a private courtyard garden — rare outside space for a studio — and sits under a long 964-year lease with a share of freehold.
This is an investor-focused opportunity: tenants currently pay £775 pcm, producing a gross annual income of £9,300 (about 8.9% gross yield at the asking price of £105,000). Service charge is £1,427.70 pa; council tax is Band A (low). Holiday lets and pets are not permitted; assured shorthold tenancies are allowed.
Practical considerations are clear and factual: the flat is small (327 sq ft) and uses electric storage heaters. The building dates from 1930–1949 and has period features externally; internal walls are cavity construction without added insulation (assumed). Crime is above average in the area, and the property sits in a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood and wider migrant-family area — factors that affect tenant mix and management needs.
Position is a strong local selling point: under 100 yards from cliff-top walks and Bournemouth beach, with the town centre and transport links close by. EPC D, and the current tenants mean this is best-suited to an investor looking for immediate income and a straightforward tenancy management opportunity rather than a move-in home.
