Internally the home is a practical, average-sized 527 sq ft layout with an open-plan living/kitchen, double bedroom, modern bathroom and large storage cupboard. An EPC rating of C and average thermal wall performance indicate reasonable energy efficiency, though heating is electric room heaters which can increase running costs compared with gas heating.
Buyers should note material costs: an annual service charge of £2,619.90 and ground rent of £500 per year. The property sits in an area flagged as having very high crime levels and very high deprivation, which may affect resale or rental demand; nearby amenities and good mobile and broadband connectivity partly offset these local challenges. This is best suited to first-time buyers seeking affordability or investors targeting city rentals, provided they factor in service charges and local area risks.
