This ground-floor two-bedroom apartment on Malvern Road is a compact, well-maintained home offered with no forward chain and a share of the freehold. The layout provides naturally bright reception space, two double bedrooms and a bathroom within a modest 538 sq ft — ideal for first-time buyers or downsizers seeking low-maintenance living with outdoor space.
Stand-out practical benefits include a private rear garden and a garage, both rare for flats of this size, plus a long 130-year lease and a below-average service charge of £540 per year. The living room retains mid-century character with wood flooring, a fireplace and a bay window, while the building’s modernised mid-century exterior and gated entrance give a neat, secure feel.
Buyers should note the apartment is small overall and may suit those prioritising location and ease over larger living areas. The surrounding area is classified as deprived, and council tax is above average. There is scope to update finishes to suit contemporary tastes — a straightforward improvement project that could increase appeal or rental income.
Convenient local amenities, good broadband and excellent mobile signal support working from home, while nearby highly rated primary and secondary schools add family appeal. For investors, the property’s size, garden and garage improve rental attractiveness in a market where outside space is prized.
