The flat is offered chain free with a long lease (101 years) and measures about 678 sq ft, making it suitable for downsizers wanting a low-maintenance, lock-up-and-leave base or investors seeking a city-centre rental.

Buyers should note this is a leasehold apartment with an annual service charge (around £2,856) and a small ground rent (£250). Heating is via electric storage heaters and the building’s solid brick walls are likely uninsulated, which may affect running costs and could present improvement opportunities. Broadband speeds are reported slow and local crime statistics are above average.
Overall this apartment offers characterful, centrally located accommodation with immediate availability and clear potential for cosmetic updating or energy-efficiency improvements. It suits someone prioritising location and character over low running costs, or an investor comfortable factoring service charges and potential refurbishment into the purchase.
