Important cost and tenure facts are stated plainly: the property is leasehold with 90 years remaining, no ground rent, and an annual service charge of £9,753. Part of that charge covers usual homeownership services; a capped 3% transfer premium may apply on resale depending on ownership length. Council Tax is Band E and EPC rating C. These running costs and the remaining lease length are key considerations for buyers.
This apartment suits downsizers or buyers aged 55+ seeking an accessible, community-focused home close to town amenities. The flat is ready to occupy with scope for cosmetic updating to personalise finishes and make the most of the sizeable living space and balcony.
