Built in the early 1990s with double glazing added after 2002, the flat is largely move-in ready though compact at around 498 sq ft.
Be aware of some material considerations: heating is provided by electric storage heaters, which may be less efficient than gas alternatives and could affect bills. The immediate area is classified as deprived with a very high crime rate, which may affect desirability and resale; buyers should assess this against the central location and local rental demand. Service charges are approximately £1,295 per year and broadband speeds are average.
Overall, this apartment offers sensible central living with realistic costs and long lease security. It will appeal to purchasers prioritising location, ease of upkeep and immediate usability, while those seeking larger living spaces or lower-crime neighbourhoods may want to compare alternatives.
