Chain-free one-bedroom flat close to shops and transport, long lease..
One double bedroom, open-plan lounge and fitted kitchen
This bright second-floor flat on Holdenhurst Road offers a compact, ready-to-move-in one-bedroom layout ideal for a first-time buyer or small household. The open-plan lounge and fitted kitchen create practical everyday living in a manageable 360 sq ft, while UPVC double glazing and a modern bathroom keep running costs and upkeep straightforward.
The property is chain-free and comes with a long lease (108 years) and modest annual costs: service charge £1,236.12 and ground rent £250. Council Tax is low (Band A) and broadband speeds are fast, making the flat well suited to remote working or student tenants. There is off-street parking on a first-come, first-served basis and unrestricted on-street parking nearby.
Be aware of a few material points: heating is by electric room heaters (no communal gas), the building dates from the late 1960s–1970s and shows mid-century construction features, and the block sits in an area with higher crime statistics and local deprivation indicators. The EPC is D. These factors should be weighed against the low purchase price and rental potential if considering buy-to-let.
Walkable shops, cafes, parks and regular bus and rail links place the flat within easy reach of Bournemouth town centre, Boscombe and Southbourne. For a buyer wanting a compact, low-maintenance home or a straightforward investment close to transport and amenities, this offers clear value—provided you accept the electric heating, parking arrangement and neighborhood context.
