Practical running costs and tenure details are clear: the property is leasehold with 91 years remaining, an annual service charge of £1,488.80 and ground rent of £200. Heating is via electric storage heaters, and the home benefits from double glazing installed after 2002; note that electric storage heating can mean higher energy bills compared with gas systems.
The location suits families and professionals: very low local crime, good-rated nearby primary schools, regular bus links and local leisure amenities. Broadband speeds are average but mobile signal is excellent. The apartment’s size and single-story layout make it an easy-to-manage first home or rental investment, while the no-onward-chain status speeds up the buying process.
Potential buyers should be comfortable with the leasehold arrangement and the annual charges, and factor in the modest internal space when planning furniture or future use. For those seeking a modern, low-maintenance base in a well-served part of SS16, this apartment is a practical, ready-to-move-into option.
