Set on Western Boulevard, this upper‑floor one‑bedroom apartment offers an affordable entry to Nottingham with a long lease and no onward chain. The open-plan living/kitchen faces communal gardens, giving a sense of light and outside space despite the compact overall size. Council tax is very low, and transport links, shops and schools are within easy reach.
The flat will suit first‑time buyers or investors seeking a low-cost purchase with rental potential. The integrated kitchen is relatively modern, and the layout includes a double bedroom and three‑piece bathroom. The property benefits from mains gas heating, double glazing and a surrounding community garden.
Buyers should note several material drawbacks: the building shows signs of external wear and past damp/mould in places, and the interior needs some general redecoration and upkeep. The area has above‑average crime and is classified as very deprived, and the property sits in a medium flood‑risk zone. These factors affect resale and lettings risk and may require additional insurance or repair costs.
Overall, this is a budget‑price, small apartment offering immediate occupancy or straightforward refurbishment for rental. It’s best suited to purchasers prepared to accept some maintenance work and the local social challenges in exchange for long‑lease security and a low purchase price.
