This ground-floor, two-bedroom flat in Rayden Court offers practical, low-maintenance living with clear commuter advantages. Set in a modern detached block (c.2003–2006) and just a short walk from Cannock Chase and local greens, the apartment suits first-time buyers, downsizers or buy-to-let investors seeking straightforward access to nature without sacrificing transport links.
Internally the layout is traditional and functional: an open-plan kitchen/living area, two modest bedrooms and a bathroom. The property benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating, an allocated off-street parking space and a long lease (approx. 106 years). Council tax is described as cheap, and there’s no chain which streamlines moving or letting processes.
Buyers should note the flat is average-sized (approx. 722 sq ft) and shows some cosmetic wear — a damaged door, scuffed skirting and generally dated finishes in places — so immediate redecoration or minor repairs may be required. The leasehold arrangement includes a modest ground rent (£200) and there may be additional costs for leasehold paperwork. Broadband speeds are average, while mobile signal is excellent.
Overall this is an economical, practical proposition for a buyer wanting an affordable foothold in WS12 or a landlord seeking a rental in a low-crime area near major green space. The combination of location, parking and long lease gives genuine value, provided you accept the need for light updating and typical leasehold costs.
