Ground-floor two-bed with private patio, secure parking and long lease — no onward chain.
Chain-free ground-floor apartment with private rear patio and garden access
This ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in Willow Park offers comfortable, low-maintenance living with a rare long lease. Set within a secure gated community in Birkdale, the property benefits from its own private patio, allocated parking and direct garden access from the master bedroom — useful for easier daily living and enjoying outdoor space without stairs.
The layout is bright and practical: a front-facing living room, modern fitted kitchen, two double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes, an en-suite to the master and a separate family shower room. Double glazing and gas central heating provide efficient warmth; the EPC rating is C. The apartment is sold chain free and may be sublet, offering flexibility for future plans.
Notable costs and restrictions should be considered: the property is leasehold (936 years remaining) with an annual service charge of £2,907.03 and ground rent of £250 per year. Pets are not permitted. Local area indicators show higher-than-average crime levels, which may influence buyer priorities despite the gated parking and private outdoor space.
Overall, this apartment will suit downsizers or those seeking a secure, ground-floor home with outdoor space and parking. It presents a straightforward, move-in-ready option while carrying the ongoing service charge and the communal rules to factor into the running costs and lifestyle.
