A well-presented first-floor flat in the heart of Peterborough offers practical city-centre living and straightforward commuter access. The open-plan living, kitchen and dining area creates a bright social space, while two double bedrooms — including a main with en-suite — suit sharers or a couple needing a spare room.
Practical running costs are clear: a 250-year lease started in 2015 (about 240 years remaining), ground rent £300pa and service charge plus insurance roughly £1,561 per year. Council tax sits in Band B (£1,700pa). The building was completed in 2015 and benefits from double glazing and modern construction standards.
Important considerations: heating is by electric room heaters rather than a gas central system, and the property sits in a high-crime, very deprived urban area close to student neighbourhoods. For buyers prioritising security and travel, the flat includes a secure gated parking space and is a short walk from Peterborough train station, with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband.
This flat will suit first-time buyers seeking an affordable entry into the city centre, or investors targeting rental demand from commuters and students. It presents low immediate maintenance needs but limited scope for adding gas central heating without retrofit costs.
