This two-bedroom leasehold flat in Thurmond Crescent offers a straightforward, chain-free purchase in a well-connected Winchester neighbourhood. The apartment is bright throughout, with two double bedrooms, a combined lounge/diner and a practical kitchen — a sensible layout for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors.
The building sits in established mid-20th-century stock with communal gardens and pleasant green surroundings. The location gives easy access to Winchester city centre, schools, local amenities and public transport links, making commutes and everyday errands simple. Broadband and mobile signal are reported as strong.
The property is presented in liveable condition but would benefit from modernisation to maximise value; buyers should expect cosmetic updating and possible energy-efficiency improvements (walls are cavity-built with no confirmed insulation). Key practical notes: the lease has about 88 years remaining, service charge is low, but ground rent is comparatively high.
Overall this flat is a cost-effective entry into Winchester or a manageable rental proposition. It is best suited to purchasers comfortable with an 88-year lease and willing to carry out some updating to unlock its full potential.
