Chain-free one-bedroom flat with garage and long lease — ideal for first-time buyers..
Share of freehold with 976 years remaining
A bright one-bedroom first-floor flat on the edge of Forestdale, offered chain free with a very long share-of-freehold lease. The apartment sits in a mid‑20th‑century brick block and benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and a modern fitted kitchen and bathroom — practical features that suit a first-time buyer or young couple. A garage en‑bloc and nearby shops, buses and tram links add everyday convenience and commuting ease.
The flat is an average-sized 446 sqft property with straightforward accommodation and good natural light from large windows. Local schools rated Good, very low local crime and fast broadband support family life and home working. No flood risk and a long lease (976 years) remove common ownership worries.
Notable costs and maintenance items are factual: an annual service charge of £1,848.12 and assumed cavity-wall construction with no installed cavity insulation (as built) — insulation improvements could reduce energy bills. The communal block is mid-century and while generally tidy, it will not offer the high-spec finishes of newer developments.
In short, this is a sensible, low-risk step onto the property ladder: comfortable now with clear, affordable opportunities to add value through modest upgrades to energy efficiency and interior finishes.
