Contemporary 1-bed apartment, approx. 538 sq ft
A contemporary one-bedroom apartment in The Wharf, part of Waterside Village, offers modern city living with desirable shared facilities. The open-plan living area with Juliet balcony, large double bedroom and four-piece bathroom create a comfortable, well-appointed home of about 538 sq ft. Residents benefit from allocated off-street parking, a rooftop garden with entertaining zones, a gym, communal co-working space and a concierge service.
Practical ownership facts: the property is leasehold with 250 years remaining, an EPC rating of B and an annual service charge of approximately £1,433. The building was completed in 2020 and still benefits from the remainder of a new-build warranty period. The apartment is on the fourth floor with lift access and two storage cupboards in the entrance hall.
Buyers should note clear drawbacks: the local area records higher crime levels and is classified as deprived, which may affect resale and rental demand. Heating is electric via room heaters, which can be more expensive than gas central heating, and there is a regular service charge and communal management to budget for. Overall this flat suits buyers seeking a low-maintenance, modern home close to the train station and town centre, or investors wanting a city-edge rental with strong communal amenities.
