A well-presented two-double-bedroom second-floor flat offering 721 sq ft of practical living space, positioned close to local shops, bus routes and several good primary schools. The layout includes a comfortable lounge, fitted kitchen, shower room/WC and useful hallway cupboards; loft access and a security entry phone add everyday convenience. Gas central heating and double glazing (installed before 2002) provide reasonable thermal comfort; the EPC is rated C.
This property will suit first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors looking for a straightforward entry into the SS17 market. The flat is largely move-in ready and maximises its footprint, making it easy to maintain. Nearby primary schools are rated Good and travel connections are handy for local workers.
Buyers should note material facts: the flat is leasehold with 88 years remaining, in a 1960s system-built block that likely has limited wall insulation. There may be service/management charges and potential future maintenance on communal fabric typical of post-war blocks. The surrounding area is in a deprived classification and some nearby secondary schools have mixed Ofsted outcomes—worth checking if schools are a priority.
Overall this is a pragmatic, affordable flat with clear short-term usability and modest long-term improvement potential. It represents a sensible purchase for someone prioritising location, immediate occupancy and rental income potential, provided the lease length and communal condition are reviewed prior to offer.
