A bright, brand-new one-bedroom apartment on the first floor of the Shilton Block, finished in 2024 and offered with a long 999-year lease. The apartment has a generous double bedroom, an open-plan living and kitchen area with integrated appliances, engineered oak flooring and high-spec bathroom fittings — ready to move into or rent out immediately.
Security and sustainability are strong selling points: gated section entrances, colour video entry screens, lockable letterboxes, secure bike storage and solar PV together support low running costs and modern living. Parking is available to purchase separately for £5,000; a £5,000 reservation deposit is required to secure the flat.
Practical points to note: tenure is leasehold (999 years) and the development sits in a city neighbourhood with very high recorded crime levels — buyers should consider security and insurance implications. The description lists solid brick construction with assumed no cavity insulation; internal thermal performance is reported as excellent, but check construction details if insulation is a priority.
This property suits first-time buyers, professionals or investors seeking a low-maintenance new build in LE2 — close to schools, shops and public transport, with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband. Council tax is reported very cheap, which will help running costs alongside the energy benefits of solar PV.
