This well-presented first-floor apartment in Standen Gate offers a low-maintenance two-bedroom home with a freshly updated interior and pleasant communal garden views. At about 517 sq ft, the layout suits a first-time buyer or downsizer seeking affordable access to Lancaster with private parking and close proximity to Williamson Park.
The apartment was redecorated and re-carpeted in 2022, has full double glazing and modern finishes in the kitchen and bathroom. It sits within a small purpose-built block with allocated parking, visitor bays and a modest service charge that covers gardening, window cleaning and buildings insurance. The asking price reflects an 80% valuation under the Lancaster affordable housing scheme; affordability restrictions have been lifted.
Practical points to note: heating is via electric storage heaters, which can mean higher running costs than gas heating. The home is leasehold (975 years remaining) with a small annual ground rent (£88) and a below-average service charge (circa £50 pcm). The compact size and traditional layout provide straightforward renovation potential but limit space compared with larger family homes.
