This vacant ground-floor one-bedroom flat offers an affordable entry into Bournemouth’s rental and owner-occupier market. The apartment sits in a traditional 1930s building with a long lease (approx. 152 years) and off-street parking, making it practical for everyday use.
Internally the property requires updating and modernisation. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the cavity walls are assumed to have no added insulation — buyers should budget for improvements to heating, insulation and cosmetic works. Service charges run at £1,511.04pa and the area records above-average crime, which are important ownership considerations.
On the upside, the flat is small and manageable (around 31 sqm / 334 sq ft), sold vacant and close to Pokesdown train station (0.6 miles) and regular bus routes, with Boscombe and Bournemouth reachable within a few miles. A communal garden provides outdoor space, and the recently extended lease removes short-lease complications.
This property will suit a first-time buyer or investor willing to carry out refurbishment to improve comfort and value. Commissioning a full inspection and considering energy-efficiency upgrades are recommended steps before purchase.
