A compact two-bedroom ground-floor flat in Skeaping Close, offered chain-free and ready for a first-time buyer. The flat sits in a modern development within easy walking distance of Newmarket town centre, shops and transport links, making daily errands and commutes straightforward. Allocated off-street parking and low local crime add practical convenience and peace of mind.
The accommodation is efficient: open-plan lounge/kitchen, two bedrooms and a family bathroom within approximately 549 sq ft. The building is modern with double glazing and mains gas central heating via a combi boiler. The communal areas are described as well maintained and the flat benefits from a recently updated consumer unit in the boot room.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with about 106 years remaining and an annual ground rent of £150; additional leasehold administration or pack fees may apply at sale. The flat is small and will suit buyers looking for a compact, low-maintenance home rather than large living spaces. Prospective purchasers should arrange their own service checks and surveys, as appliances and services have not been independently tested.
This is a straightforward, budget-conscious entry onto the property ladder: low council tax, good local schools nearby, and strong mobile signal. The area is classified as having hampered aspiration and pockets of deprivation; buyers should weigh local market prospects against the convenience and low running costs this flat offers.
