Summary - LANSDOWNE HOUSE FLAT 12 CHRISTCHURCH ROAD BOURNEMOUTH BH1 3JR
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Affordable entry near beach with long lease and refurbishment potential.
Top-floor two-bedroom apartment, ten-minute walk to town and beach
This top-floor, two-bedroom apartment sits ten minutes' walk from Bournemouth town centre and the beach, making it a convenient base for city-and-seaside living. The property benefits from a long lease (152 years), is chain-free and comes with gas central heating and hot water provided by a communal system, both included in the service charge. The south-facing aspect brings natural light to the living spaces.
The interior is dated and will suit a buyer willing to modernise; the lounge and kitchen are average-sized and present clear scope to update for contemporary living. Service charges are above average and ground rent applies, so monthly running costs should be considered alongside mortgage payments. Resident permit parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis rather than an allocated space.
This flat is well suited to first-time buyers looking for an affordable entry into Bournemouth or an investor targeting a central rental: current estimated rent is circa £1,150 pcm. Note the property is in a lively, multicultural student neighbourhood and the local crime level is recorded as very high—important for prospective buyers and landlords to factor into security and insurance plans.
Overall, the apartment offers strong location value, long lease security and immediate availability, but requires cosmetic refurbishment and budget planning for relatively high service charges and local safety considerations.
