Nearby schools have Good Ofsted ratings and local amenities are abundant, from supermarkets and cafés to restaurants and services. The long lease (142 years) provides tenure security.
Be aware of ongoing costs and location context: the annual service charge is around £3,948 and heating is provided via a community scheme rather than an individual boiler.
