This top-floor one-bedroom flat occupies a traditional sandstone building on Holmlea Road and suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking an affordable city-base. The apartment feels bright thanks to a bay-windowed lounge and benefits from a good-sized dining kitchen and a modern bathroom. Gas central heating and a secure entry add practical comfort.
At 428 sq ft the accommodation is compact; the layout works for single occupancy or a couple but offers limited storage and living space. Timber-framed windows are charming but may need future maintenance or upgrading. Parking is on-street only.
The building and close are well kept, and the flat has fast broadband and excellent mobile signal—useful for remote working or letting. Public transport links are nearby for quick city-centre access. Be aware the local area records high deprivation indices, which may affect long-term resale values and should be considered by buyers.
Overall this is a straightforward, affordable starter flat or rental prospect in a period building. It offers immediate move-in potential with scope for cosmetic updating to increase value.
