Main Description

A Raised Ground Floor One-Bedroom Apartment in a Highly Desirable Location – Offered with No Forward Chain

Marlborough Court enjoys an exceptional position, just a short stroll from Wimborne Minster town centre. This raised ground-floor apartment offers a fantastic opportunity for a buyer seeking a home to update and personalise, or an investor looking for a long-term rental property with strong potential.

Accessed via external raised steps, the communal security entrance leads into a shared hallway serving only a small number of flats. The private front door opens into a compact entrance hall and through to a spacious, bright open-plan living room and kitchen. Enjoying a dual aspect with windows to the front and rear, this is an inviting space with plenty of natural light. The kitchen is modern and well-appointed, making it a practical area ready to use immediately.

The double bedroom includes built-in wardrobes with sliding doors and a rear-facing window overlooking the car park and towards woodland beyond. The bathroom, while functional, would benefit from refurbishment-an ideal chance to add value. Additional features include electric heating, double-glazed windows, and an allocated parking space, conveniently visible from the flat.

The property is offered with no forward chain.
