Heating and hot water are provided via a community biomass scheme, which may suit buyers wanting a communal solution but could differ from individual gas systems.

Local amenities are strong — shops, supermarkets, eateries, leisure facilities and good primary schools are nearby — making this a convenient choice for first-time buyers or investors seeking a modern, city-based flat. The wider neighbourhood is classed as an achieving area within a generally deprived district, so buyers should weigh local regeneration prospects alongside current community services.
