A bright two-bedroom second-floor apartment in St Marks Court, offering compact, newly renovated accommodation with an open-plan lounge and fitted kitchen. The lounge benefits from a Juliet balcony and integrated kitchen appliances, making it move-in ready for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor.
Practicalities are clear: long lease (991 years), allocated off-street parking for one car, double glazing and mains gas central heating. Service charges and ground rent are present (average service charge £1,886; ground rent £212), and the apartment overlooks playing fields with convenient local shops and a bus stop immediately outside.
Investment appeal includes an anticipated rental yield around 5.8% (marketing references also state c.6.2%), plus proximity to Worcester city centre and the M5. The property is small at 564 sq ft, so it suits those seeking a compact, low-maintenance home or a rental with modest rooms.
Important drawbacks are factual and significant: the property is leasehold, the overall size is small, and the location is in a high flood-risk area. Prospective buyers should factor in the service charge, ground rent and flood risk when considering insurance and future costs.
