Central one-bed with allocated parking and long lease for first-time buyers.
Chain-free, first-floor one-bedroom apartment
A compact one-bedroom apartment in the Southside development, offered chain-free with an allocated off-street parking space — a rare find for a central city address. The open-plan living area has large windows that bring in natural light; finishes are broadly contemporary though some internal décor shows wear and could benefit from updating.
This first-floor flat suits a first-time buyer seeking a central, well-managed building with lift access, secure fob entry and concierge. The long lease (127 years) and low council tax band make ownership straightforward, while the apartment’s size and central location also appeal to investors targeting student or city-centre lets.
Be aware of a few material factors: heating is by electric room heaters rather than a communal system, the area records high crime levels and is classified as deprived, and the annual ground rent is £300 (service charge to be confirmed). The property has no private garden and internal space is small-to-average for a city-centre one-bedroom, so storage and layout should be checked at viewing.
With established local amenities, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, the flat delivers practical city living with immediate access to shops, restaurants and transport links. It’s a pragmatic purchase for buyers prioritising location and low-entry costs, with potential to add value through modest refurbishment.
