Compact, low-maintenance apartment ideal for a first buy or buy-to-let investment.
Ground-floor one-bedroom apartment, approx 474 sq ft
A ground-floor one-bedroom apartment with immediate vacant possession and no onward chain, set in Drapers Fields beside the Coventry Canal. The living room enjoys waterside views and the open-plan kitchen is well fitted, offering a practical low-maintenance layout for a first home or buy-to-let. The apartment totals about 474 sq ft and includes an allocated off-street parking space.
The property is presented in tidy, lived-in condition but shows signs of age in kitchen and bathroom fittings; light modernisation would increase rental appeal and resale value. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the home is double-glazed, so factor in running costs compared with gas-heated properties. Leasehold tenure is long—161 years remain—and the EPC is Band C.
Running costs include an average service charge of £1,200; Council Tax sits at Band A (very low). Note the immediate local context: the site is in a cosmopolitan, student-heavy neighbourhood within a very deprived area and recorded as having very high crime levels — important for buyers to consider, especially investors assessing rental risk and families evaluating safety.
Overall this is a compact, practical city-centre apartment that will suit first-time buyers seeking an affordable canal-side starter home, or landlords wanting a straightforward investment with short-term upside from modest upgrades.
