Affordable chain-free purchase with clear refurbishment potential.
Top-floor two-bedroom flat, 646 sq ft
A top-floor two-bedroom flat offering 646 sq ft of practical living space, sold chain-free and ready for new owners. The layout includes a medium-sized reception room, a kitchen with adjoining utility area, two double bedrooms and a single bathroom. Heating is by mains-gas boiler and radiators; windows are double glazed (install date unknown). The property is leasehold with 83 years remaining.
This apartment is best suited to first-time buyers seeking an affordable entry into the market or investors targeting a low-cost purchase with refurbishment potential. The interior shows dated 1970s/post‑war styling and will benefit from cosmetic updating and modernisation to unlock its full value. The EPC is D and a full service check or survey is recommended before purchase.
Location and running costs are noteworthy: council tax is very cheap (Band A) and there is no flood risk. However, the immediate area records high crime levels and is within a very deprived neighbourhood classification, so buyers should weigh local community factors and rental demand carefully. Public transport, shops and local amenities are within easy reach.
Practical considerations: the property is in a block constructed c.1950–66 with system-built walls and internal insulation. Leasehold administration and any additional fees (lease packs etc.) will apply. For those prepared to invest in upgrades, this flat offers an economical purchase with potential for rental income or stepped-up resale value after refurbishment.
