Occupying a desirable West End position just off the Esplanade, this ground-floor two-bedroom flat sits within a distinctive red sandstone tenement and offers bright, period-accented living close to the waterfront. High ceilings and a large bay-windowed lounge create a sense of space; double glazing and gas central heating provide practical comfort. The fitted dining kitchen and walk-in storage make day-to-day living straightforward. Broadband is fast and mobile signal is excellent.
The apartment is well-suited to downsizers or first-time buyers looking for a character property with low-maintenance living on one level. Shared communal features—ornate entrance, stained glass and tiled murals—add charm, while a rear shared drying green provides outside space. The building benefits from a security entry system and an affordable council tax band. EPC rating D.
Buyers should note the local context: the surrounding area is classified as very deprived and the street-fronting location means on-street parking only. Internally some rooms would benefit from modernization to meet contemporary standards (living room and decorative finishes), so there is clear scope to add value. The flat is offered freehold and presents a sensible purchase for resale or rental in a central, waterside location.
