This chain-free two-bedroom apartment in Wrenswood is an affordable entry point for first-time buyers or a buy-to-let investor. The flat offers an open-plan kitchen/dining area, a bright living room and a refitted bathroom, all within an average-sized 794 sq ft layout. Allocated off-street parking and well-kept communal gardens are strong everyday conveniences.
The building dates from the 1960s and the flat currently needs further updating; this presents clear scope to add value through cosmetic renovation or reconfiguration. Service charges are reported as low, and the area benefits from very low crime, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — practical positives for renters or new owners.
A material caution: the lease has around 80 years remaining. That may restrict mortgage options and could deter some lenders unless extended. Buyers should seek mortgage and legal advice on lease length and estimated extension costs before committing.
Overall this apartment suits buyers wanting a renovation project with immediate rental or owner-occupier potential, plus those seeking a straightforward purchase with no onward chain. Proximity to good local schools and a very affluent neighbourhood profile add to longer-term appeal.
