This ground-floor two-bedroom flat offers a straightforward, affordable route onto the property ladder. With 560 sq ft of living space, the layout suits first-time buyers or downsizers seeking low-maintenance single-storey living and immediate access to local transport and amenities.
The property benefits from a very long lease (977 years), off-street parking and double glazing. A practical fitted kitchen, a living room large enough for dining, and two sizeable bedrooms make the accommodation easy to use from day one. Council tax is low and the building is relatively modern, constructed in the early 2000s.
Buyers should note the neighbourhood scores high for deprivation and recorded crime is above average; this will affect long-term resale and rental demand. Broadband speeds are reported as slow, and the development has an average service charge of £1,094 a year. The nearby school mix includes several ‘Good’ primary schools but at least one secondary with an ‘Inadequate’ Ofsted rating.
Overall this flat represents practical value for a first-time buyer or investor who prioritises location, long lease security and affordable running costs, while accepting some local social challenges and modest living space.
