Description
Nestled within a quiet cul-de-sac setting, this well-positioned second-floor apartment enjoys a highly sought-after location just moments from the vibrant town centre, with its excellent selection of shops, cafés and restaurants. The award-winning beaches are within easy walking distance, while the property also benefits from delightful views overlooking Bournemouth Gardens, with direct access from the communal grounds.
The apartment is accessed via either lift or stairs and offers well-proportioned accommodation throughout, now requiring modernisation and redecoration—presenting an excellent opportunity for buyers to personalise to their own taste.
The generous living/dining room provides a bright and welcoming space, featuring sliding doors that open onto a private balcony, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The fitted kitchen offers ample work surfaces and storage, complete with a built-in oven, hob and extractor, along with space for a washing machine and upright fridge/freezer.
There are two bedrooms: the principal bedroom is a good-sized double with two built-in wardrobes and an en-suite shower room comprising a shower cubicle, wash basin and WC. The second bedroom is a small double or good size single, ideal as a guest room or home office, and also benefits from a built-in wardrobe.
The main bathroom is fitted with a bath and shower attachment, wash basin and WC. Additional storage is provided by an airing cupboard.
Externally, the property includes an allocated parking space within a gated development. The communal areas have been recently redecorated and are well maintained, with attractive communal gardens offering direct access into Bournemouth Gardens.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on OpenRent comparables.
- Rent ratio — Monthly rent ÷ purchase price (1% rule). 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak for cashflow.
- Max investor price — Rent ÷ 0.8%; the price at which rent would be 0.8% of price (Stoke-style target).
- Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
- Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
- Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
- Cashflow — Rent minus mortgage, 10% maintenance, £25/mo compliance. Assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term.
- ROI — Annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).
