This top-floor corner apartment in Trafalgar Wharf offers bright, practical living across approximately 780 sq ft. A large south-facing balcony and open-plan living/dining room provide light and outdoor space; the master bedroom includes an en-suite for convenience. Secure underground parking and a long lease (971 years) are strong ownership advantages.
The building has double glazing and Economy 7 heating; both help with insulation but Economy 7 can increase heating costs depending on usage. Annual outgoings include a service charge of about £1,128, ground rent of £80 and additional building insurance and parking fees — factor these into running costs.
Location is convenient for motorway links, the city centre and local bus routes, with several nearby primary and secondary schools rated Good or Outstanding. However, the immediate area records very high crime and is classified as deprived, which will concern some buyers and may affect resale or rental demand.
This flat suits a first-time buyer or buyer seeking an affordable, well-specified apartment with secure parking and long leasehold security. It will also appeal to investors looking for a let-ready unit, but consider the local crime statistics and service charges when assessing yield and management needs.
