Ideal starter property with low running costs, parking and long lease.
Ground-floor two-bedroom maisonette with open-plan living/kitchen
Allocated off-street parking plus visitor spaces; small front garden
Long lease (989 years) — secure long-term ownership
Service charge £840 (below average) — manageable communal costs
Council Tax Band B — low ongoing ownership costs
Jack-and-jill four-piece bathroom limits privacy between bedrooms
Smaller second bedroom best suited to child, guest or home office
Fast broadband, excellent mobile signal; low crime and low flood risk
This ground-floor two-bedroom maisonette sits in a modern small development on the fringe of Hatton, offering a straightforward, low-maintenance home or rental asset. Built after 2012, the property benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and an open-plan living/kitchen that receives good natural light. The long lease (989 years) and modest running costs make ownership simple and predictable.
Practical features include an allocated off-street parking space plus visitor bays, a small front garden, and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal — useful for commuters or working-from-home tenants. Local amenities, primary schools and leisure facilities are close by, with easy road links to Derby and Burton, making the location convenient for families and renters.
The interior layout comprises one double bedroom and one single bedroom, served by a four-piece jack-and-jill bathroom. The jack-and-jill arrangement can be less private than an en-suite, and the smaller bedroom is best suited as a child’s room or office. Service charge is £840 (below average), and council tax sits in band B, keeping ongoing costs relatively low.
Overall, this is a sensible purchase for first-time buyers seeking a manageable home with low running costs, and for investors after a modern, easy-to-let property in a low-crime, low-flood-risk area. The accommodation is largely move-in ready, with potential to personalise the open-plan living/kitchen to increase appeal or rental return.
