This compact first-floor flat offers efficient living for a first-time buyer or commuter seeking low-maintenance modern space. The open lounge with Juliet balcony and contemporary fitted kitchen make everyday life straightforward; both bedrooms are a practical size and the principal bedroom includes an en-suite. Secure off-street parking and an intercom-controlled communal entrance add everyday convenience.
Be aware of ongoing costs and local context. The property is leasehold with 107 years remaining, an average service charge of £1,680 and ground rent of £100 per year. Main heating is electric panel/room heaters which can mean higher running costs compared with gas systems; glazing is modern PVCu double glazing which helps insulation.
Location is strong for commuting, close to Hinckley town centre and major roads (A5, M1, M6, M69). Local shops, schools rated Good and amenities are nearby. However, the immediate neighbourhood records very high crime levels and the wider area is formally classed as deprived — practical security measures and awareness of local conditions are important.
The flat is small (about 559 sq ft) but well laid out and ready to move into. It will suit buyers prioritising location, low upkeep and straightforward modern accommodation rather than large family living or properties with gas central heating.
