A bright ground-floor two-bedroom apartment offering straightforward, low-maintenance living and an allocated off-street parking space. The living/dining room benefits from good natural light and the modern kitchen has integrated appliances — a practical layout for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors.
The property is compact at 484 sq ft with a double bedroom that includes fitted wardrobes and a smaller second bedroom suitable as a nursery, guest room or home office. Heating is electric room heaters and glazing predates 2002; these are economical to maintain but offer lower thermal performance than modern gas systems.
The home is leasehold with 98 years remaining, an annual service charge averaging £2,500 and a ground rent of £110 per year. Those fees are a material ongoing cost for owner-occupiers and investors to factor into affordability and rental yield calculations.
Location is convenient for the City Centre, A38 and nearby amenities, including Sainsbury’s and regular bus routes. Note the property sits in a very deprived area with higher local crime levels; buyers should weigh local market prospects and consider security and community factors when viewing.
