Set on the second floor of a modern development in Peterborough city centre, this two-bedroom apartment offers a straightforward, low-maintenance home for a first-time buyer, downsizer or investor. The open-plan lounge/kitchen leads out to a balcony with pleasant field views, while lift access and an allocated parking space make daily life easy. The flat is presented in immaculate condition and benefits from an EPC rating of B.
Practical details are favourable for a leasehold purchase: about 100 years remain on the lease, with a modest ground rent and a service charge that covers communal upkeep. The open-plan living space and integrated kitchen appliances create an appealing, contemporary layout for renters or owners who want city living without extensive maintenance.
There are some important cautions to note. The property is in an area assessed as very deprived and the location has a high flood risk — buyers should satisfy themselves about insurance and flood-mitigation measures. It is a leasehold flat with an annual service charge of £1,438.92 and ground rent of £217.46; these running costs and any selective licensing rules should be checked before purchase.
Overall, this is a tidy, well-presented apartment in a highly convenient location for transport, university and shops. It suits buyers looking for a ready-to-live-in home or a rental-ready investment, provided they factor in the leasehold charges, local area considerations and flood-risk implications.
