This bright ground-floor two-bedroom flat on Harris Street offers a practical, comfortable home for a first-time buyer or small family. The reception room feels welcoming and light, the kitchen is functional for everyday cooking, and the main bedroom provides a peaceful retreat. A private rear garden adds valuable outdoor space for dining and relaxing. The flat’s period exterior and sash/bay window details give character and kerb appeal.
The property benefits from a long lease (approximately 122 years remaining) and an option to take a share of the freehold at additional cost, which can give greater control over future management. Local transport links, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal make commuting and working from home straightforward. Several highly rated primary schools are within easy reach, which will appeal to young families.
Buyers should note practical cautions: the area records above-average crime and is identified as relatively deprived, which may influence future resale or rental demand. Leasehold tenure applies and any shared freehold purchase, service charges and other costs should be checked with legal advisors before committing. The internal space is average for a Victorian terrace maisonette, so those needing larger rooms should verify measurements.
Overall, this is a well-presented, conveniently located Victorian ground-floor flat with garden and a long lease—suited to first-time buyers seeking a period property close to schools and transport, who are comfortable with an inner-city neighbourhood profile.
