A smart, low-maintenance first-floor apartment with a contemporary open-plan kitchen/living area ideal for modern single living or couples. The property has a long lease (975 years), allocated off-street parking and access to communal gardens, making it practical and convenient for everyday life.
Presented chain-free, this 1-bedroom flat sits in a well-built development (2003–2006) with double glazing and an EPC B rating. Council Tax Band B keeps running costs modest, and the property’s footprint (approximately 593 sq ft) offers an average, comfortable room layout for a starter home.
Buyers should note heating is via electric storage heaters and the property’s broadband speeds are reported slow, which may matter for heavy home-working or streaming. Tenure is leasehold — the lease length is excellent, but leasehold terms and service charges should be checked before purchase.
Nearby schools (including Ofsted-outstanding options) and local amenities add everyday convenience. This is a straightforward, economical entry onto the property ladder for buyers prioritising low upkeep and a quick move-in.
