Property Oracle says ..
This one-bedroom apartment, situated in Rosemary Court on Shales Road within Bitterne, Southampton, is marketed towards an over-55s demographic. The property benefits from a convenient location within Bitterne Village, which offers a variety of local amenities, including shops and restaurants. The proximity to Harefield Primary School and Moorlands Primary School, both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted, is an advantage for potential buyers with families or those concerned with the education standards in the vicinity. The nearby Bitterne train station provides reasonably convenient access to wider transport links.
The apartment itself comprises a single bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, and living area. Based on the provided images, the apartment appears functional but requires modernisation. The kitchen and bathroom appear dated, and the overall decor and furnishings suggest a property that would benefit from updating to appeal to a broader range of buyers. Notably, the property includes no outdoor space. This lack of a garden or private outdoor area significantly restricts its appeal, especially for buyers seeking a property with exterior space.
The price of £100,000 might be considered reasonable given the location and size, especially compared to some nearby apartments, but the lack of garden, dated interior, and target demographic will likely limit interest from all potential buyers.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
