Set on the second floor in a central Friar Gate block, this two-bedroom flat offers an accessible city-base for a first-time buyer. The apartment is pleasantly proportioned (approx. 641 sq ft) with a large lounge, kitchen-diner, two bedrooms and built-in storage.

Offered chain-free with a residents' permit car park and communal gardens, the home is well-suited to buyers wanting low-maintenance city living. Local amenities, public transport links and several well-regarded schools are close by, making everyday life convenient and reducing commuting time.
