Quiet, low-maintenance first-floor flat close to Stanley Park, designed for buyers looking to downsize without losing space. The layout includes a lounge/dining room, fitted kitchen and two double bedrooms, making it comfortable for couples or those wanting a spare room. The property sits within established communal gardens and benefits from off-street parking and UPVC double glazing for lower upkeep.
Practical details: the home is leasehold, chain-free and totals about 614 sq ft — compact but efficiently arranged. Heating is by electric storage heaters; this keeps installation simple but can mean higher running costs compared with gas. There is one bathroom and a modest overall size, so it suits buyers prioritising location and ease over large living areas.
Location is a strong selling point: under a quarter-mile from award-winning Stanley Park and near local shops, healthcare and public transport. The building dates from the late 1990s/early 2000s and sits in maintained grounds, offering communal spaces without private garden maintenance.
Points to note: the area is classified as deprived with above-average crime statistics, and broadband speeds are only average. The combination of leasehold tenure and electric heating should be considered when budgeting. For someone seeking a straightforward, low-upkeep home near green space, this apartment offers good value with clear scope for cosmetic updating.
