Two bathrooms including a master ensuite and built-in wardrobes add everyday convenience, and one off-street parking space is included.
The development is newly built with lift and secure entry, making it a straightforward step onto the property ladder for buyers wanting a low-hassle, furnished home near New Street and Five Ways. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, and local transport links, shops and leisure options are all within easy reach.

The immediate area records very high crime levels and is classified as very deprived, which may affect long-term desirability despite strong rental demand in the wider neighbourhood.
Overall, the apartment suits a first-time buyer seeking a ready-to-move-in, low-maintenance city base with good transport connections and investment potential, provided you accept the service charges, electric heating and local area challenges.
