Summary - 38, HEATHLANDS GRANGE DE15 9GZ
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Small modern one-bed with parking, long lease and low running costs.
- One double bedroom; open-plan lounge/kitchen
A compact one-bedroom apartment in a modern low-rise development, this property offers a straightforward entry into homeownership or a manageable rental investment. The open-plan lounge/kitchen provides a usable social space with integrated appliances and a front-facing aspect. A double bedroom and shower room complete the internal layout. The flat benefits from an allocated parking space in the resident car park and communal landscaped beds.
Practical running costs are reasonable: a long lease (106 years remaining), below-average service charge (£240), modest ground rent (£100) and very cheap council tax. Connectivity is strong with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and the location carries no flood risk. Constructed since 2012, the building features modern double glazing and assumed insulated cavity walls.
Buyers should note the wider area’s socioeconomic indicators: the immediate neighbourhood is classed as deprived with higher-than-average crime and a “hampered aspiration” classification. The apartment is small (approximately 345 sq ft) and accessed via an external communal stairwell, which may limit appeal for those wanting larger living space or step-free access. The community heating arrangement and communal management mean buyers should check service charge inclusions and appliance/service conditions before purchase.
Overall, this well-presented, low-maintenance flat suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a compact city-centre-positioned home with sensible running costs and straightforward rental potential, provided they accept the location’s broader challenges and compact internal size.
