This compact ground-floor one-bedroom apartment offers a practical, low-maintenance base close to Kenilworth town centre and within walking distance of the station. The open-plan living space leads directly to a private gravelled courtyard and you also get one allocated off-street parking space — helpful for commuters or those seeking a straightforward rental opportunity.
Internally the layout is efficient: a sizeable lounge/dining area, small modern kitchen, double bedroom and a tiled three-piece bathroom. The building dates from the 1980s, has double glazing and electric storage heaters. The long lease (153 years remaining) and a below-average service charge make the tenure straightforward for first-time buyers or buy-to-let purchasers.
Buyers should note the property’s footprint is small (around 399 sq ft) and the heating is electric storage, which can be more expensive than gas heating. The location has medium flood risk and local crime levels are above average — important considerations for families or those sensitive to insurance and security costs. Council tax is described as cheap, which helps running costs.
Overall this is a sensible, affordable entry-level home or rental unit for someone who values proximity to shops, schools and rail links, and who is comfortable with a compact, open-plan space and simple electric heating.
