This compact one-bedroom apartment sits on the 13th floor of a modern high-rise in central Basingstoke, offering far-reaching town views and excellent connections to the train station, buses and nearby M3/A33 routes. The open-plan living area and fitted kitchen make efficient use of the 367 sqft layout, ideal for a single professional or first-time buyer seeking low-maintenance city living.
Practical benefits include double glazing, recent construction (2007–2011), very cheap council tax, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for remote working. The property is leasehold and uses electric room heaters, which should be considered for ongoing running costs compared with gas-heated homes.
Buyers should note material negatives: the apartment is small, with limited storage, and the local crime level is reported as very high. These factors may affect comfort and insurance costs. The open-plan layout and high-floor position do give strong lettability potential for investors or a compact long-term home for someone prioritising location over space.
Overall this flat suits a buyer looking for a well-located, move-in-ready city base with low upkeep and strong transport links, who is comfortable with a compact footprint, electric heating and leasehold ownership.
