This first-floor one-bedroom apartment sits within an attractive converted Victorian red-brick building in Leighton Park, Bicton Heath. The interior combines character features—tall sash windows and high ceilings—with a modern kitchen and well-presented living space, making it ready to occupy or straightforward to let.
Practical benefits include private off-street parking, access to well-kept communal grounds and a small enclosed paved patio. The 504 sq ft layout is compact but open-plan, with a generous bedroom and a bright kitchen/dining/living area suited to single occupancy or a rental flat.
Buyers should note material constraints: the property is listed, which can restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance or improvement plans. Heating is by electric room heaters (no central system), so running costs may be higher than gas-heated homes. Tenure is leasehold with around 190 years remaining; prospective purchasers should check service charges and any listing-related obligations before committing.
Overall, this apartment offers characterful, low-footprint city-edge living with private parking and communal grounds. It will suit a first-time buyer seeking a manageable home or an investor looking for a lettable, low-maintenance asset — provided they are comfortable with listed-building restrictions and electric heating.
