This modern two-bedroom top-floor flat offers an affordable route into ownership via a 25% shared-ownership share. Built in 2019, the apartment provides about 721 sq ft of well-arranged living, two bathrooms and a useful open-plan reception ideal for everyday life or working from home.
Practical benefits include allocated off-street parking, lift access, an EPC B rating and fast broadband in a town-centre location with quick motorway links. The building is purpose-built and appears well maintained, making it a straightforward move for first-time buyers seeking low up-front purchase cost.
Buyers should note the ongoing monthly commitment: combined rent and service charge is £869, and heating is provided via a community scheme. The wider area is classified as relatively deprived, which may affect long-term capital growth compared with more affluent neighbourhoods. The lease is long (c.199 years remaining), and the apartment is sold as a 25% shared ownership share only.
Overall this is a practical, contemporary flat for someone prioritising affordability and convenience over full ownership and who is comfortable with the recurring rent/service charge and community heating arrangement.
