Bright two-bedroom ground-floor flat with parking and communal garden in sought-after Locks Heath.
Ground-floor convenience with easy access and minimal stairs
This ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in Woodrush Crescent offers an accessible, low-maintenance base in sought-after Locks Heath. Bright living space, a separate kitchen and two good-sized bedrooms make it a practical first home or a straightforward buy-to-let. Allocated off-street parking and access to well-kept communal gardens add outdoor space without private upkeep.
The property is sold as a share of freehold with a very long lease (996 years) and an annual service charge of £840 (£70/month), which is below average for managed developments. Council tax is described as cheap, broadband is fast and mobile signal is excellent — practical day-to-day advantages for working-from-home or commuting buyers.
Buyers should note this apartment uses electric storage heaters and mains electricity as the primary fuel source; this can mean higher running costs compared with gas heating. The building dates from the 1983–1990 period and the double glazing install date is unknown, so some buyers may choose to check insulation and heating efficiency. Overall size is modest at about 570 sq ft, so the layout suits singles, couples or first-time buyers rather than those requiring extensive living space.
Locks Heath is family-oriented with good local schools, shopping amenities and easy links to Southampton and Portsmouth. For buyers seeking a compact, well-located home with low external maintenance and long lease security, this apartment represents a sensible, convenient option — with straightforward improvement potential to tailor heating and insulation to personal preference.
