A stylish two-bedroom Grade II listed home arranged over multiple floors, finished to a high standard and arranged within a gated development. High ceilings, sash windows and quality fittings combine period character with modern comforts, including a Nest AI heating system and an automated security alarm. Two allocated parking spaces and a low-maintenance rear garden add practical benefits for everyday living.
The property was newly renovated and offers scope to increase living space by creating access to the existing basement (subject to necessary planning permission). The layout includes an open-plan ground floor with a fully fitted kitchen and separate W.C., plus two double bedrooms and a family bathroom on the first floor.
Important practical points: the home is Grade II listed, which will impose restrictions and may complicate alterations, and there is an annual maintenance charge of £300 covering the private road, parking area and electric gate. The development sits in an area with good transport links to the city and a range of nearby schools and faith-based amenities, while local socioeconomics are mixed.
This property will suit a first-time buyer seeking a move-in-ready home with character and low outside maintenance, or an investor targeting strong rental appeal close to city links. If you plan major structural changes or basement development, factor in listed-building consent and planning timeframes before proceeding.
