This ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in the Clovis block offers easy, level-access living a short walk from the town centre, shops and local parks. The bright lounge-dining room has French doors onto a small outdoor space, and the property includes an allocated off-street parking space and secure entry to the block.
Internally the layout is traditional and practical: a double bedroom, modern kitchen with built-in storage and a bathroom with shower over bath. The home is chain-free and has a long lease (164 years), making it straightforward for a buyer looking to move quickly.
Notable running and maintenance details: heating is via electric storage heaters and the EPC rating is D, which may mean higher energy costs than gas-heated homes. The property is leasehold with an average service charge of around £1,800 per year; prospective buyers should check what this covers. At about 409 sq ft, the flat is compact and best suited to a single person or couple downsizing from a larger home.
The building sits in an area classified for communal retirement and constrained renting; while the location is convenient, buyers should be aware the wider area records higher deprivation and this can affect future resale values and rental demand. Overall, the apartment suits someone seeking low-step, central living with allocated parking and minimal immediate works, while accepting higher service and energy costs in exchange for convenience and a chain-free purchase.
