Set on the second floor of Metropolitan Apartments, this 629 sq ft two-bedroom flat offers a straightforward city-centre buy with immediate let or move-in potential. The open-plan lounge/kitchen stretches over twenty feet, delivering a flexible living and entertaining area with three front-facing windows that bring good natural light. Allocated off-street parking and lift access add practical convenience for residents or tenants.
The layout includes a large principal bedroom with walk-in wardrobe, a second bedroom suitable for a child or room-mate, and a contemporary shower room finished with tiled splash areas. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent — practical benefits for students, professionals or sharers in this cosmopolitan neighbourhood. Chain-free sale and a long lease (approx. 104 years remaining) simplify purchase logistics.
Important considerations: the property sits in an area with very high recorded crime and higher-than-average deprivation, which may affect resale values and rental demand for some tenants. The building has an EPC rating of D and the flat is leasehold with an annual ground rent of £250. Prospective buyers should factor these points into budgeting and insurance decisions.
For investors, the combination of city-centre location, nearby transport and amenities, and an open-plan living space makes this a realistic buy-to-let candidate. For first-time buyers, the affordable price, allocated parking and manageable running costs (Council Tax band C) offer a pragmatic entry into the city market, provided the local area profile suits your needs.
