This well-proportioned two-double bedroom apartment sits on the first floor of a Georgian Revival block in a lively city-centre location. The flat benefits from a large lounge, private balcony with a stadium view and a well-equipped kitchen with separate fire-escape access. Lift access and an unusually long lease (circa 978 years) with a share of freehold add practical value for buyers and investors.
The location is a strong selling point: excellent public transport links, fast broadband, nearby Bute Park and a wide range of shops, cafés and leisure venues on the doorstep. At about 843 sq ft the layout is traditional, offering a roomy reception and two double bedrooms — the master opening to the balcony via French doors.
Buyers should note some material costs: the service charge is high (£6,092 pa) and council tax is above average. The area records very high crime and is classified as very deprived, which may affect some purchasers’ priorities or rental yields. The building dates from 1930–1949 and cavity walls are assumed to have no insulation, signalling potential ongoing maintenance or upgrade costs.
Overall this apartment will suit investors and city commuters seeking central living with good transport, broadband and outdoor amenity access. The long lease and share of freehold are positives, but budget for higher service charges and consider area safety and retrofit costs when assessing value.
