A bright top-floor apartment in a neat brick block, this two-bedroom flat offers practical, low-maintenance living for a first-time buyer or couple. The large lounge opens onto a private balcony that overlooks well-kept communal lawns and benefits from plentiful off-street parking. The fitted kitchen, pantry and built-in storage help maximise the compact 506 sq ft footprint.
The home is heated by electric storage heaters and has double glazing fitted after 2002; these features reduce immediate upgrade needs but mean running costs should be considered. The lease is long (about 155 years) and the block is managed with an average service charge of around £1,290 per year.
Set within comfortable walking distance of a shopping parade, local schools and public transport, the flat suits buyers seeking convenience over expansive space. Note the medium flood risk classification and cavity walls that are assumed uninsulated — both are practical matters to factor into long-term maintenance or improvement plans.
