Summary - Flat 2, 220-221, High Street West SR1 1TZ
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Secure first-floor flat suitable for investors or buyer-occupiers seeking central location.
City-centre one-bedroom apartment, approx. 592 sq ft
A one-bedroom, first-floor city-centre apartment offering straightforward rental or owner-occupier potential in a historic Victorian building. The apartment has an open-plan living area with a fitted kitchen, one double bedroom and a separate bathroom, arranged across approximately 592 sq ft. The secure communal entrance and central location put transport links, shops and leisure within easy reach — a practical city base for students or professionals.
This property will be sold at auction (commencing 3rd November, 1pm). It is leasehold and carries an administration fee of £3,600 (inc VAT) payable on exchange; buyers should consult the legal pack for all disbursements. The building dates from 1900–1929, has double glazing of unknown age and electric storage heating. EPC rating D.
Considerations for buyers: the area records very high crime levels and is classified as very deprived, which will affect rental demand and perception. Broadband speeds are reported as very slow and the wall construction is assumed to be uninsulated sandstone/limestone — insulating or heating upgrades may be required. Council tax is very cheap, and mobile signal is excellent.
This flat suits investors seeking a city-centre let in a student-and-professional area or a first-time buyer comfortable with leasehold ownership and potential remedial work. Factor in auction timelines, the administration charge, and likely short-term refurbishment or energy improvements when assessing value.
