This recently modernised ground-floor apartment offers two double bedrooms, stylish kitchen and bathroom fittings, and shared garden access. The property sits in a Victorian terrace and benefits from double glazing, mains gas heating and high ceilings typical of the period. Its compact 586 sq ft layout will suit first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking ready-to-move-in accommodation close to transport and local amenities.
Important sale details materially affect buyer costs and finance: the property will be sold at a Modern Auction with an undisclosed reserve, a non-refundable reservation fee (minimum £6,600 or 4.5% of price) and additional buyer fees. The lease has c.80 years remaining — this is short and may make some mortgage lenders refuse to lend without a lease extension.
The flat is offered as a share of freehold with a new lease to be granted on completion; however buyers should check lease terms and any additional leasehold packs or admin costs. The apartment's size is small and the mid-terrace building has solid-brick walls likely without cavity insulation, so consider energy and maintenance costs despite recent internal refurbishment.
Viewing and bidding require careful due diligence: the buyer information pack contains legal and property documents but may not disclose everything. Prospective purchasers are advised to commission surveys, confirm total auction-related costs, and check lender criteria before committing.
