This chain-free first-floor maisonette offers two double bedrooms and about 751 sq ft of traditional, two-storey living — an accessible starter home or buy-to-let in need of cosmetic updating. The layout includes a fitted kitchen, a spacious lounge/dining room and a family bathroom, with shared access to a communal balcony. The property is offered with 87 years remaining on the lease and available immediately.
Practical running costs are clear: service charge c.£1,400pa, ground rent £125pa and building insurance c.£350pa. The accommodation is straightforward and liveable now but would benefit from modernisation in parts (kitchen and décor) to maximise comfort or rental income. Mobile signal is excellent; broadband speeds are average.
Location and local services are mixed. There are several nearby schools (one outstanding and two rated good), a wide range of local shops and amenities within walking distance, and public transport links. However, the area records higher crime levels and is classed as very deprived — these factors may affect resale and rental demand and should be weighed by buyers and investors.
Overall this maisonette suits a first-time buyer on a budget or an investor looking for a lower-entry purchase that can be improved. Buyers should note the remaining lease length and annual charges and allow budget for sensible refurbishment to unlock value.
