Tidy one-bedroom flat offered chain free, well suited to first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-entry purchase. The layout is traditional and practical, with a bright living area, functional kitchen and a good-sized double bedroom. At about 484 sq ft the home is easy to run and maintain.
Residents benefit from access to a communal garden and fast broadband, with local amenities and strong transport links close by. The building dates from the late 1960s–1970s and presents straightforward living rather than period charm, making it a sensible buy-to-let or a starter home that can be personalised over time.
Be clear on running costs and condition: the property is leasehold, heated by electric storage heaters and has an EPC rating of D. The area scores high for deprivation and crime relative to national averages — factors that can affect resale and rental demand. Council tax and low ground rent (reported £10) are positives for monthly outgoings.
For investors, the flat’s size, location and chain-free status offer quick letting potential, though prospective buyers should allow for possible modernisation (heating and energy efficiency) and carefully consider local market factors before committing.
