This compact two-bedroom flat in Bevois Valley sits within easy walking distance of Southampton city centre and local transport links, making it a practical choice for first-time buyers seeking city living or investors targeting rental demand. The open-plan living area and balcony bring natural light into the apartment, and the property benefits from double glazing and share of freehold tenure.
Accommodation is straightforward: entrance hall with storage, open-plan sitting/dining room leading to a fitted kitchen, two double bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom with shower over bath. At roughly 601 sq ft, the flat is small but efficiently laid out and well-suited to single professionals, couples, or as a buy-to-let unit.
Buyers should note material negatives: heating is by electric room heaters, which can be costly compared with gas central heating, and the area records above-average crime and high deprivation levels. The lease has about 93 years remaining and service charges average £1,532, so consider lease length and ongoing costs when assessing long-term value.
For those prioritising location and rental potential near the university and city centre amenities, this property offers immediate occupancy and straightforward management. For buyers seeking low-running-cost heating, larger living space, or a very long lease, further comparison is advised.
