This compact ground-floor apartment offers a sensible, low-maintenance first home or buy-to-let in Rugeley. The open-plan living area and breakfast kitchen create a light, usable space, while a generously sized bedroom and built-in storage keep the layout efficient for everyday living.
Practical features include double glazing, wall-mounted electric smart heaters and an allocated parking space to the rear. Constructed in the early 2000s, the block appears well maintained; running costs are helped by a below-average service charge and very low council tax.
Important to note: the property is leasehold with about 75 years remaining. That lease length may make mortgage lending difficult or impossible with some lenders, and there is an annual ground rent and service charge to factor into affordability. Heating is electric storage/ wall-mounted units rather than gas, which can affect energy costs.
For first-time buyers seeking a straightforward, modern apartment close to local schools and amenities, this is a practical, affordable option — provided you check borrowing options and long-term lease plans before committing.
