Note the wider area is classified as more deprived, which may influence long-term values and local services.
This property suits someone wanting a low-maintenance, stylish riverside base or an investor seeking a compact, well-located rental. Be aware of the leasehold nature, ongoing service charge, and the top-floor/stairs layout when assessing suitability.
