This second-floor one-bedroom apartment occupies a modern, purpose-built block close to Chesterfield town centre, ideal for first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-entry urban home. The open-plan living/kitchen creates a flexible social space, while double glazing and an EPC C rating offer reasonable energy performance for an electric-heated property. The sale is offered with no upward chain and the current tenant will vacate soon, simplifying possession for an owner-occupier or re-letting for an investor.
Practical features include an allocated off-street parking space, intercom access and a compact bathroom with a white three-piece suite. The 155-year lease (from 2006) gives long-term security for a leasehold purchase; council tax sits at Band A which keeps ongoing costs low. Fast broadband and good public transport links add everyday convenience for commuting or renting to students and professionals.
Buyers should note the apartment is small (approx. 409 sq ft) and uses electric room heaters rather than a gas central heating system, which may lead to higher running costs. The property is located in a neighbourhood with higher crime and local deprivation indicators — buyers should consider personal security and lettings demand accordingly. While in generally contemporary condition, the flat shows signs of light maintenance needs and would suit cosmetic updating or modest refurbishment to maximise value.
