Summary - TELEPHONE EXCHANGE, OGLE ROAD SO14 7FB
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Secure allocated parking and contemporary finishes ideal for central-city living.
Third-floor two-bedroom apartment with lift access
A well-presented two-bedroom third-floor apartment in the heart of Southampton city centre, offered with a rare allocated parking space behind secure electric gates. The open-plan living area and contemporary kitchen maximise natural light in a compact 452 sq ft footprint. Lift access, intercom entry, basement bike storage and storage cages add practical convenience for tenants or owner-occupiers.
This flat suits an investor or city-dweller seeking low-maintenance living close to Southampton Central Station, West Quay and city amenities. The long lease (approximately 144 years remaining) provides security, while integrated appliances, automated blinds and recent finishes reduce immediate refurbishment needs. Secure gated parking is a notable premium in a central location.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the building sits in a very high crime area and broadband speeds in the property are reported as very slow. Heating is electric room heaters only, which may mean higher energy costs. Service charge averages around £2,500 per year and the overall internal area is small — best suited to singles, couples, students or short-term lets rather than large families.
Overall, the apartment offers a straightforward, modern city-base with clear rental and convenience appeal. It presents immediate move-in condition with modest upgrade potential, balanced against above-average running costs and location-related considerations.
