Compact one-bedroom ground-floor flat with garden and parking, near Boscombe Beach..
Share of freehold and very long lease (c.980 years)
A compact ground-floor conversion with its own private entrance, this one-bedroom apartment sits about half a mile from Boscombe Beach and local shops. The layout includes a double bedroom, separate sitting room, small kitchen and bathroom, plus an allocated parking space and a private rear garden — useful extras for urban coastal living. The long lease (c.980 years) and share of freehold are genuine ownership strengths that reduce long-term leasehold risk.
The flat is modest in size (approx. 356 sq ft) and presented in lived-in condition. It will benefit from cosmetic updating and basic maintenance to modernise fixtures and finishes; the property would suit a first-time buyer looking for an affordable seaside base or an investor seeking a lettable unit close to the seafront. Heating is via a mains-gas boiler and radiators; glazing is mixed (some original single-glazed sash windows noted alongside reported double glazing), so consider potential replacement costs.
Buyers should be aware of local factors that could affect living experience and resale. The area is classed as very deprived with a high local crime rate, which can impact rental demand and insurance costs. Service charges average around £1,100 per year; council tax is very low. No flooding risk is recorded. Overall, this is a budget-friendly opportunity with secure ownership details and clear scope for value-add through updating and garden enclosure.
