A compact ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in Bradgate Heights offering low-maintenance, modern living close to Glenfield Hospital and motorway links. The open-plan living/kitchen provides a light, usable social space while two bedrooms suit sharers or a first-time buyer seeking a long-term home.
Practical running costs are clear: an EPC rating of C, allocated parking for one car and a 102-year lease. Annual costs include ground rent of £100 and a service charge of £1,553.92 – important to factor into monthly budgets. The total internal area is about 575 sq ft, so expect cosy rooms rather than generous proportions.
The building and apartment appear contemporary and well-kept, but the local area faces high crime levels and significant deprivation, which may affect resale and renting prospects. Broadband speeds are average but mobile signal is excellent. This apartment suits buyers prioritising location, convenience and affordability over space or a quiet neighbourhood.
Overall, this is a practical entry-level purchase for first-time buyers or professionals who need easy transport links and on-site parking, and who are comfortable living in a small, urban apartment within a mixed inner-city setting.
