Set in sought-after North Woodley, this two-bedroom ground-floor flat offers a practical, low-maintenance home ideal for a first-time buyer. The living room sits at the front with a large window and wood-effect flooring, while the contemporary kitchen and bathroom provide ready-to-use, modern finishes. Both bedrooms are double size; the main bedroom opens directly onto the rear patio and private garden, a rare convenience for a ground-floor flat.
Outdoor space is a genuine asset: a private garden with lawn, patio and covered pergola leads to a rear gate with direct access to a garage. There is also off-street parking to the front, easing everyday life and making the property suitable for commuters. Gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC C rating contribute to reasonable running costs.
The flat is leasehold with 125 years remaining and a modest council tax band, which supports affordability for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. Constructed in the late 1960s–1970s, the building is straightforward in character and should suit purchasers seeking a tidy home with scope for light personalisation rather than major structural works.
Note the walls are cavity as-built with assumed lack of insulating fill — upgrading insulation could improve comfort and efficiency. The overall footprint is small-to-average at approximately 620 sq ft, so buyers wanting larger rooms or extensive storage should check space against their needs.
