This ground-floor one-bedroom flat on East View in Wideopen is a solid entry-level purchase for a first-time buyer or a straightforward buy-to-let. The accommodation includes a double bedroom, a bright lounge, fitted kitchen, bathroom/WC and a substantial private rear yard — useful for storage or outdoor seating.
Practical benefits include gas central heating, double glazing, a very long lease (circa 958 years) and a low council tax band (A), which keeps running costs down. The property sits in a comfortable, predominantly professional neighbourhood with good local shops, regular bus links and schools nearby, making everyday life convenient.
The flat is presented in serviceable condition but would benefit from light cosmetic updating — new flooring and modern finishes would maximise appeal and yield. The building is traditional solid-brick construction (likely early 20th century) and currently shows no insulation in the walls (assumed), so buyers should consider energy-improvement costs despite a C-band EPC.
Important factual notes: the property is leasehold and purchasers should confirm terms with a solicitor. The area records above-average local crime levels, so check local data if this is a priority. Viewing is recommended to confirm layout, exact measurements and to inspect the rear yard and communal access.
