This compact ground-floor apartment offers an affordable entry into Redruth with immediate possession and a very long lease. The open-plan lounge/diner/kitchen and one bedroom suit a single occupant or couple seeking a low-maintenance home or a straightforward buy-to-let. Communal parking and gardens add practical outdoor space, and local transport links and shops are within easy reach.
The building benefits from double glazing and a 999-year lease (commenced 2003), with low annual service charge (£90) and modest ground rent (£80). Broadband and mobile connectivity are strong, and local primary and secondary schools have good Ofsted ratings — useful for nearby renters or first-time buyers.
Buyers should note this is a small apartment (approx. 442 sq ft) with a street-facing aspect and limited outlook over the car park. Heating is by electric night storage heaters, which can be more costly than gas in colder months. The surrounding area is classified as very deprived with above-average crime and a transitional local demographic, factors to weigh for owner-occupiers and investors alike.
Overall, the flat represents a low-entry purchase with clear short-term rental potential and scope for cosmetic improvement (floors and decoration). The lack of onward chain and very long lease make the sale procedurally simple, but purchasers should factor in running costs, location considerations, and the flat’s modest size.
