This compact one-bedroom apartment in Brunswick Square offers an affordable, chain-free entry into Penrith’s town-centre market. At around 356 sq ft the layout is traditional and efficient: a bright lounge/dining area, separate fitted kitchen and a double bedroom provide comfortable accommodation for a first-time buyer or investor seeking a lettable town base.
Practical running costs are helped by a low service charge of around £50 and a very long lease (c. 976 years). The building is double-glazed, constructed in the late 1990s/early 2000s, and benefits from excellent mobile reception and fast broadband — useful for home working or lettings.
Buyers should note the property is small and uses electric storage heaters as the main heating, which may affect running costs compared with gas. The area records higher crime levels than average, so prospective buyers should satisfy themselves on security and local conditions. Council tax banding and exact dates on glazing and heating installation are not confirmed and should be checked.
Positioned in central Penrith, the apartment is an easy walk to shops, cafés, transport links and parks, and is well placed for access to the Lake District and local secondary schools rated Good. For those wanting a low-maintenance town base or an affordable investment, this apartment provides a straightforward, low-entry option with clear scope for updating or redecoration to add value.
