Set on the second floor of a Victorian sandstone tenement in The Shore, this one-bedroom flat offers city-centre convenience and period character. High ceilings, a bay window and large sash-style glazing bring natural light into the open-plan living, dining and kitchen area. The layout makes efficient use of 386 sq ft, with a separate shower room and additional WC.
Practical features include gas central heating and double-glazed windows, plus fast broadband and excellent mobile (4G) coverage—useful for home working or tenants. The property is sold Freehold, which is uncommon for flats and may appeal to owner-occupiers or investors seeking straightforward tenure.
Buyers should note the flat is small and has no private outdoor space, typical of tenement apartments. The immediate area is classified as very deprived and as a cosmopolitan, student-heavy neighbourhood of migrant commuters; this brings many local amenities but may not suit those seeking a quiet suburban setting.
Given its compact size, central location and rental-friendly features, the flat suits first-time buyers wanting a city-base or buy-to-let investors targeting short-term and student lettings. The accommodation is presented for immediate occupation but offers scope for cosmetic updating to increase value.
