Large living room with dual-aspect windows and good light

Light-filled and well laid out, this two-bedroom apartment in Totley offers an inviting first home or move-down option. Set on the first floor of a low-rise post‑war block, the property benefits from dual-aspect principal rooms and generous living space across approximately 738 sq ft. Well-established communal gardens and an allocated parking space add practical outdoor and storage value.
The long lease (around 745 years) removes common leasehold anxieties, while the no upward chain position allows a swift, uncomplicated sale. Heating is by mains-gas boiler and radiators; the building’s cavity walls are as-built with assumed no insulation, which buyers may wish to consider when assessing energy efficiency. EPC rating is to be confirmed.
There is a reasonable annual service charge (about £1,380), and the apartment sits in a comfortable neighbourhood with low crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband—convenient for working from home. Local amenities, bus links, and highly rated schools are within easy reach, and the Peak District is accessible for weekend outdoor trips.
Overall this is a practical, well-proportioned apartment for a first-time buyer looking for space, outdoor communal grounds and parking, or for someone wanting a low-maintenance home close to services. Buyers seeking high thermal performance should note the assumed lack of wall insulation and that the EPC is pending.
