Buyers should note the apartment is compact at about 474 sq ft and runs on electric heating with room heaters, which can increase running costs compared with gas-heated homes.

This apartment will suit first-time buyers or commuters seeking a low-maintenance town-centre base with strong transport links to London. Investors may value the rental potential thanks to the central location and proximity to the station, but should factor in service charges and electric heating when modelling yields.
