Set on an upper floor of a traditional early-20th-century building, this one-bedroom apartment offers a compact, well-specified home or rental unit in CV2. The flat benefits from contemporary finishes, double glazing, an efficient gas boiler and an EPC rating of 82 (Band B), keeping running costs lower. Off-street parking is included — a helpful convenience in a city location.
This is a leasehold property with 130 years remaining, an annual service charge around £1,363 and a small ground rent (£83). The building has no lift and the apartment is reached by stairs, which should be considered by buyers with limited mobility. Walls are solid brick with no added cavity insulation assumed; further insulation or energy improvements may be possible but could require investment.
The area is a busy, city neighbourhood with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, suited to investors or first-time buyers seeking affordability. Local amenities and schools are nearby, though parts of the ward show higher crime and area deprivation indicators; buyers should factor local context into their plans. The property is currently let under an assured shorthold tenancy, so purchasers wanting immediate vacant possession should check tenancy terms.
Overall, this apartment offers low council tax (Band A), good energy performance and straightforward rental potential, balanced against locality challenges and the need to consider mobility access and possible insulation upgrades.
