Affordable one-bed near city links with parking and fast broadband.
One-bedroom first-floor flat, approx. 396 sq ft
This compact one-bedroom first-floor flat offers an affordable entry into Southampton close to transport links and local amenities. The open-plan kitchen/living area stretches 18ft and benefits from double glazing and an allocated off-street parking space — useful practical extras for city living. Broadband speeds are good and the property sits within reach of local schools, shops and Peartree Nature Reserve.
Buyers should note the flat is leasehold with approximately 103 years remaining; the service charge is around £1,500 pa and ground rent is £50 pa. Heating is by electric room heaters and the EPC is grade E, so running costs are likely higher than gas-heated homes. The building dates from the 1950s–60s and external walls are assumed to have no added insulation, which may mean improvement work is worthwhile.
At about 396 sq ft this is a small, low-maintenance home best suited to a single occupant, couple or buy-to-let investor seeking a centrally located, low-price purchase with immediate rental or letting potential. The location is within easy reach of the city centre and local train stations, though the surrounding area is classed as relatively deprived, which may affect long-term capital growth prospects.
Viewings will suit buyers prioritising affordability and location over space and energy efficiency; any purchaser should verify lease, service charge and all property details with their solicitor prior to exchange.
