Quietly tucked in Purewell, this freehold two-bedroom first-floor flat offers a compact, characterful home with practical outside space. The open-plan living area, two double bedrooms and modern shower room suit a first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-maintenance property close to Christchurch town and Stanpit Nature Reserve. Off-street parking for two cars and a private garden are uncommon advantages for a flat of this size.
The building dates from the early 20th century and retains period features including decorative bay windows and working feature fireplaces that add character. The large loft provides scope for storage or potential conversion (subject to consents). The kitchen includes integral appliances and the property is double glazed with gas boiler and radiators.
Buyers should note the apartment is small (approx. 481 sq ft) and sits within a mid-terrace Victorian building; the front garden and rear yard need attention and the roof shows some damage to chimneys/roofing that will require repair. Walls appear to be original cavity construction with no installed insulation assumed. Crime in the area is above average, and the neighbourhood is described as an ageing industrious workers profile — factors to consider for occupation or rental.
Overall this flat offers straightforward ownership (freehold), convenient parking, and garden space, balanced by modest size and some maintenance/upgrade work. It is well suited to first-time buyers wanting character and outdoor space, or investors seeking a rentable two-bed in a popular Christchurch location.
