Potential off-street parking for two cars (not guaranteed)
Sold by modern auction — undisclosed reserve and buyer fees apply

This freehold ground-floor flat on Longcroft Road offers a straightforward entry into homeownership: two bedrooms, private entrance and an enclosed rear garden. The living room flows to a decent-sized kitchen; the property benefits from mains gas central heating and double glazing, providing comfortable, economical living with very low council tax.
The property is being sold by modern auction. Bidders must allow for an undisclosed reserve, a non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600 incl VAT) and administration costs. A Buyer Information Pack is available and any structural works noted are detailed there — prospective purchasers should read the pack and complete their own due diligence before bidding.
Practical positives include potential off-street parking for two cars, private outdoor space and recently completed structural work (details in the pack). These features make the flat suitable for first-time buyers seeking an affordable owner-occupied home or buy-to-let investors looking for a manageable terrace flat close to Weymouth town centre.
Buyers should weigh clear drawbacks: the property is small (about 523 sq ft), sits in a deprived area with above-average crime statistics, and the solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated. Parking is described as potential only and not guaranteed by legal title. If energy efficiency or neighbourhood amenities are high priorities, further inspection and local checks are advisable.
