This two-bedroom, two-bath flat in the gated Saxon Gate development offers a well-presented open-plan living space and a fully fitted kitchen. The master bedroom includes an en-suite; the layout suits a first-time buyer or commuter seeking low-maintenance living with allocated off-street parking.
Practical details are straightforward: the property is leasehold with 118 years remaining, a service charge of about £1,860 per year and ground rent around £460 per year. Heating is by electric room heaters and the main fuel is electricity, which may mean higher running costs compared with gas-heated homes.
The location provides good local transport links and nearby schools with several rated Good or Outstanding. However, the immediate area has higher crime levels and is classified as deprived, which buyers should weigh against the gated setting and excellent mobile signal.
Overall this apartment is a tidy, modern home that will appeal to buyers wanting convenience and low upkeep. It also has short-term lettability and investment potential, but budget for service charges, electric heating costs and consider local area issues before deciding.
