Light, modern and low-maintenance, this first-floor one-bedroom apartment on Barrack Road suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking straightforward rental income. Built in 2018, the apartment offers a bright open-plan living/kitchen, a double bedroom and a contemporary bathroom — all within a compact footprint that’s easy to run and maintain.
The building provides secure entry, lift access and well-kept communal areas. On-street parking keeps running costs down, while fast broadband and close proximity to Christchurch town centre, shops and transport make the location convenient for working professionals or students.
Financially this property is presented as an attractive low-entry opportunity: 118 years remaining on the lease, a modest ground rent of £79pa and a below-average service charge of £990pa. Projected rental income around £1,000pcm equates to a potential yield of about 6.8%, though purchasers should verify current market rents and costs.
Practical points to note: heating is electric (storage heaters and radiators), and the apartment is compact at approximately 447 sq ft — ideal for one or two occupants but limited for larger households. On-street parking can be less convenient than dedicated bays, and buyers should confirm holiday-let permissions, service arrangements and perform their own tests on services and appliances.
