Ground-floor flat with parking, communal gardens and strong connectivity.
Ground-floor two-bedroom freehold flat, about 743 sq ft
Set on the ground floor of a modern residential block beside a peaceful canal, this two-bedroom freehold flat offers straightforward city living for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The property measures about 743 sq ft and benefits from full double glazing, an allocated off-street parking space and shared landscaped grounds. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent.
The interior provides a practical layout with two bedrooms, a living room and one bathroom, but it requires updating. There are damp patches on the living-room ceiling and the ceiling will need attention or replacement. Heating is electric and the Energy Performance Certificate is a D.
Location is a genuine asset: a cosmopolitan, student and commuter neighbourhood with frequent buses, local shops, leisure facilities and canalside walks on the doorstep. Council tax is above average and the wider area is classified as deprived, which may affect longer-term capital growth but supports rental demand from students and commuters.
This flat suits a buyer who wants a ready-to-personalise property with parking and outdoor communal space and values connectivity. Expect some immediate maintenance and improvement costs, but the flat’s size, freehold tenure and convenient location give clear potential for comfortable city living or a rental income asset.
