This third-floor two-bedroom flat offers straightforward, modern living in a secure gated development a short walk from Derby city centre. The open-plan living/kitchen opens onto a private balcony, and the home benefits from an allocated off-street parking space and well-kept communal areas.
The building was constructed in the mid-2000s with double glazing and gas central heating; the property has a long lease (181 years remaining) which suits buyers seeking security. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are excellent, making the flat practical for remote work and everyday connectivity.
Notable practical facts: the apartment is compact at about 404 sq ft, so room and storage are limited compared with larger homes. The location is within a cosmopolitan, student-focused neighbourhood which can bring vibrancy but also occasional noise and higher local crime levels. Service charge and ground rent apply (approx. £1,300 pa and £107 pa respectively); these are important to budget for alongside the leasehold tenure.
