Southbourne Road, Southbourne, Bournemouth, BH6 3QL

There's a particular kind of apartment that just works — and this is one of them. Set on the ground floor of a handsome character block on Southbourne Road, it has the kind of bones that are hard to find at this price: high ceilings, a private garden, a garage, and a share of freehold. The beach and Southbourne's village high street are both a short walk away.

The main bedroom is a good size, with a wide bay window and high ceilings — it has a bit of grandeur to it that you don't always find at ground floor level.

The lounge/diner matches it for ceiling height, and French doors open directly onto a paved terrace and the garden beyond. A really bright room that gives that in/out living feel you want from this type of property.

The garden is well-proportioned, with a paved terrace off the lounge doors leading to a lawn with planted borders. It's private, and has a separate side gate providing independent access — handy for bikes, bins, or just not wanting to traipse through the flat.

The entrance hall is one of those spaces that makes you warm to an apartment straight away — wide, light, and with good built-in storage. The second bedroom is a comfortable double. The bathroom is neat and well-presented.

The kitchen is a galley — bright, with a window overlooking the garden, and with enough worktop to cook properly. It's not the kind of space where guests drift in while you're cooking; it's a working kitchen that does its job well.

Throughout, the apartment is in great condition and ready to move into.

The property comes with a garage and designated parking.

Service charge is set at £90 per month agreed by the group of freeholders. It's a very well run block in terms of the finances and maintenance.
