Description
This attractive one-bedroom, first-floor flat is situated in the highly sought-after location of Portswood, a vibrant and popular residential area renowned for its tree-lined streets and excellent amenities. The property sits within easy walking distance of Portswood high street, which offers an eclectic mix of independent shops, cafes, supermarkets and restaurants. Superbly positioned for commuters and academics alike, the flat provides effortless access to Southampton city centre, both the University of Southampton and Solent University campuses and local transport stations.
The apartment itself benefits from a desirable first-floor position that ensures natural light pours throughout the accommodation. At the heart of the home is a remarkably spacious, dual aspect bay-fronted lounge that provides a bright and welcoming environment for relaxing and entertaining. Leading from the main living areas is a modern fitted kitchen, complete with a combination boiler. The property also features a generous double bedroom and a three-piece bathroom suite equipped with an overhead shower.
Externally, residents enjoy access to well-maintained communal gardens situated to both the front and rear of the building. Crucially for this central urban location, the flat also includes the highly valuable benefit of its own allocated off-road parking space. Offering prime positioning, superb local infrastructure and excellent rental appeal, this property represents a fantastic opportunity and would be ideal for those looking to get on the property ladder or add to their existing portfolio.
A standout feature of this property is its exceptional leasehold setup, boasting a lengthy remaining lease of approximately 957 years alongside the highly coveted benefit of a share of the freehold. This arrangement grants residents greater control over the management of the building and ensures a rare zero ground rent position, keeping ongoing holding costs to an absolute minimum.
