This first-floor two-bedroom apartment in Royal Court offers a bright, open-plan living space and a private south-facing balcony — ideal for morning sun. Recently refurbished to a high specification, the property includes integrated kitchen appliances, voice-controlled lighting and double-glazed windows throughout for a modern, low-maintenance finish.
The layout suits first-time buyers or investors: two bedrooms (one with en-suite), a main bathroom and an 829 sq ft footprint that feels generous for a flat. Allocated gated parking plus visitor bays add practical convenience in a city-centre location, while fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern working-from-home needs.
Buyers should be aware of the running costs and local context. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas. Annual service charge is about £1,700 and ground rent £240; the property is leasehold with approximately 133 years remaining. The immediate area is classified as a constrained, high-crime neighbourhood and sits within a very deprived wider area — factors that may affect resale and rental demand.
Overall, this well-presented apartment offers modern living and strong buy-to-let or first-home potential at a competitive £210,000, provided purchasers accept the electric heating and local area considerations.
