Modern town-centre apartment with parking and an exceptionally long lease, ideal for commuters..
Immaculately presented one-bedroom apartment, converted 2019
Allocated off-street parking space included
991 years remaining on the lease — very long leasehold
Walkable to Farnborough town centre and mainline station
Compact size ~334 sq ft; best for single or couple
Heating via electric room heaters — potentially higher running costs
Secure entry system in the building
Local area reports very high crime levels
Compact, contemporary living in the heart of Farnborough, ideal for a first-time buyer or commuter. The apartment was converted in 2019 and has been newly renovated, so fixtures and finishes are modern and ready to use. Large windows in the open-plan living area keep the space bright despite the modest footprint.
Practical benefits include one allocated off-street parking space, a secure entry system, and an exceptionally long lease (991 years), which reduces long-term leasehold risk and supports mortgageability. The location is a major strength: Farnborough town centre and the train station are within walking distance, offering excellent links and town-centre amenities on your doorstep.
Be clear about the compromises: the apartment is small (approximately 334 sq ft) and best suited to a single occupant or couple. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than central heating, which can affect running costs. Local crime levels are reported as very high for the area, so consider security and insurance factors despite the building’s secure entry.
Overall, this is a low-maintenance, well-presented one-bedroom flat that offers immediate move-in convenience, excellent transport access and long-term lease security. It represents a practical starter home or a lettable investment in a busy town-centre location, provided you accept compact living and the noted local concerns.
