A rare freehold investment in Bournemouth’s central BH2 — this Victorian mid-terrace comprises four long-lease flats (two 2-bed, two 1-bed) currently let on ASTs and sold with the freehold. The building offers immediate rental income and flexible ownership options with individual 999-year leases for each flat and communal access to a rear courtyard garden.
The flats retain period character such as bay windows and high ceilings while featuring modern fitted kitchens and bathrooms. Located a short walk from the pedestrianised town centre, restaurants, cinemas and beaches, the property benefits from excellent transport, fast broadband and strong rental demand from the local student and city population.
Considerations: the property sits in a high-crime, deprived neighbourhood with a strong student demographic — suitable primarily for investors targeting near-term rental returns rather than families seeking long-term quiet residential streets. Construction details show cavity walls (assumed uninsulated) and pre-2002 double glazing; buyers should budget for energy-efficiency upgrades if required.
Practical points: EPCs range C–D to 2029, mains gas central heating, modest overall size and a small plot. Council tax bands are low, and the building dates from c.1900–1929 which may mean periodic maintenance and periodic compliance checks for landlord responsibilities. The sale includes all four leasehold flats and the freehold title, simplifying portfolio acquisition and management.
