Compact overall size (~413 sq ft) — limited living space
EPC C; double glazing but traditional finishes, not high-end
Located in an ageing rural neighbourhood with communal retirement character
Average broadband and mobile signal; area flagged as relatively deprived
Chain-free sale — quicker completion possible
A neat, ground-floor one-bedroom apartment offered chain-free with a private garden and allocated off-street parking — a rare find at this size. The open-plan living/kitchen receives good natural light through patio doors, and the double bedroom includes built-in storage. With 105 years remaining on the lease and no ground rent, the running costs are unusually low for a leasehold flat.
This home suits a downsizer or first-time buyer seeking low-maintenance living. The service charge is very modest (£294.42pa) and council tax sits in the inexpensive Band A, helping keep monthly outgoings down. The property has a C EPC and double glazing, but buyers should expect a compact overall footprint (approx 413 sq ft) and straightforward, traditional finishes rather than luxury fittings.
Location is on the edge of a small town in an ageing rural neighbourhood with communal retirement characteristics — convenient for local bus links and basic amenities but within an area flagged as relatively deprived. Broadband and mobile signals are average. No flood risk and average local crime levels provide some reassurance, though buyers who need fast connectivity or a busier urban setting may find the location limiting.
Practical positives — private garden, allocated parking, low ongoing charges and no chain — make this a practical, affordable option for someone prioritising convenience and low costs. The compact size and community profile mean it’s less suitable for those needing large living spaces or a lively town-centre environment.
