This two-bedroom apartment in Derby offers a practical, low-maintenance home or rental opportunity close to parks and transport links. Set within a modern block, the property provides open-plan living, a principal bedroom with en-suite, and allocated off-street parking — all useful for busy first-time buyers or landlords seeking straightforward tenants.
The flat benefits from a long lease (121 years remaining) and mains-gas central heating with double glazing, helping with energy efficiency. The communal entrance is secure with an intercom, and the accommodation totals about 724 sq ft, providing a comfortable layout for everyday living and light entertaining.
Be aware of the ongoing costs: a combined service charge and ground rent of around £2,400 per year (paid twice yearly) and the property is sold as leasehold. Local area factors include a very high crime score and mixed school performance nearby, which may affect family buyers or tenant demand. Council Tax Band B is relatively inexpensive.
Overall, this is a competitively priced, practical apartment for first-time buyers seeking convenience and easy transport links, or investors after a straightforward, modern rental. Early viewing is recommended to assess the internal condition and suitability for your plans.
