This top-floor one-bedroom apartment on Kennet Island offers a compact, low-maintenance home with a private balcony overlooking landscaped communal gardens. The bright open-plan living area and sleek fitted kitchen with integrated appliances make day-to-day living straightforward, while the double bedroom includes built-in wardrobes for practical storage.
Practical advantages include an allocated off-street parking space, long lease of approximately 986 years and no onward chain, all of which simplify purchase and ownership. EPC rating C and an affordable council tax band help contain running costs.
Notable drawbacks are the property's modest size — best suited to a single occupant or couple — and electric room heaters rather than a central heating system. The local area statistics indicate higher crime and relative area deprivation; buyers should consider location suitability and personal safety measures.
Overall this is a well-presented, move-in-ready apartment that will appeal to first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-upkeep urban property close to a nature reserve. The combination of long lease, allocated parking and a private balcony gives genuine practical value despite the compact footprint and local area challenges.
