This two-bedroom flat in Carlton Court, Banister Park, Southampton, presents a mixed bag of attributes. Its location in the sought-after Banister Park area is a strong advantage, offering proximity to Southampton’s city centre with its range of amenities, restaurants, bars, and shopping opportunities. The close proximity to well-regarded schools such as St Anne’s Catholic School (rated ‘Outstanding’) makes it an attractive option for families. The convenience of local transport links, including Southampton Central railway station, adds to its appeal.

However, the property’s condition requires attention. While the bathroom seems to have had some recent upgrades, the flooring and the kitchen are dated and would benefit from modernisation. The lack of any outdoor space, such as a private garden, is a noticeable drawback, particularly for those seeking more outdoor living. The absence of detailed plot size information makes a more accurate assessment of the overall value more challenging. The listed price of £155,000 falls within the range of other nearby properties, though further data concerning property size would allow for a more informed valuation. Overall, this flat offers a potentially sound investment given the location and relative price, but prospective buyers need to factor in the cost of refurbishment and the absence of a garden.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
