Compact, low-cost home with private garden and long lease.
Ground-floor one-bedroom maisonette with private entrance
A ground-floor one-bedroom maisonette with private entrance and garden, suited to a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking a compact, low-running-cost home. The layout is traditional and straightforward: a bright lounge, fitted kitchen, double bedroom and modern bathroom. Double glazing and gas central heating provide everyday comfort; on-street parking adds practical convenience.
The property comes with a long lease (103 years), low ground rent (£20 pa) and modest service charge (£333 pa), keeping ownership costs predictable. Local schools rated Good and easy access to the M5/M42 and nearby amenities add practical appeal for commuters and small families. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent.
Be clear about the context: the wider area scores high on deprivation indices and is classified as a hampered neighbourhood, with average crime levels. The building dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s and shows as a mid-terrace brick home — it’s presented as a tidy, partly updated unit but will suit buyers prepared for a modest-sized property and potential future improvements. EPC D and unspecified date of glazing installation mean energy upgrades could further reduce running costs.
This is a compact, affordable home with straightforward running costs and clear investment potential in a convenient location. Buyers should weigh the social and economic characteristics of the area alongside the long lease and low ownership charges when deciding to view.
