- Allocated off-street parking space to the rear
- Long lease (124 years) and low ground rent (£130/year)

This compact two-bedroom penthouse sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Lea, offering easy access to local amenities and transport links. The apartment has a lounge/diner, modern fitted kitchen, two bedrooms with fitted wardrobes, and a luxury three-piece bathroom — ready for immediate occupation with no onward chain delay.
Practical running costs are attractive: a long lease (124 years remaining), low ground rent of £130 per year, and very cheap council tax (Band A). The flat includes allocated off-street parking to the rear and double glazing, while fast broadband and average mobile signal make it suitable for remote working.
The property is small (approximately 606 sq ft) and shows signs of cosmetic wear: dated carpeting in the living room and some internal areas will need updating for modern tastes. Heating is electric, which may lead to higher running costs compared with gas central heating. Maintenance of communal areas is shared informally between six flats, so buyers should be clear on how costs are handled.
This apartment will suit a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking an entry-level purchase in Preston with low upfront barriers. It offers a straightforward layout and practical parking, but buyers looking for larger rooms, a private garden, or gas central heating should be aware of the property’s size and current specification.
