Light-filled and practical, this second-floor two-bedroom apartment offers a straightforward starter home or buy-to-let in quiet Wilroy Gardens. The 21ft open-plan living/kitchen benefits from dual-aspect glazing and modern fittings, while two double bedrooms and a contemporary bathroom suit couples or sharers. A private ground-floor garage adds secure parking or extra storage — a rare find for this price bracket.
The block sits in a tucked-away cul-de-sac, close to Southampton General Hospital and local shops, with good bus links and fast road access. The property is chain-free and comes with a long lease (113 years), making it straightforward to purchase for first-time buyers or investors seeking low-entry upkeep.
Be transparent about the practical points: the development has an annual service charge of about £2,313.97 and a small ground rent of £200 per year. Access is via stairs only, so it isn’t suitable for wheelchair users. Local crime rates are above average for the area, so prospective buyers should factor that into location suitability and insurance costs.
Overall this is a modern, low-maintenance apartment with genuine parking and long lease security — a sensible option for an affordable first purchase or rental purchase close to major employment and transport links.
