- Large, enclosed front garden

A budget-friendly, chain-free two-bedroom first-floor flat with an unusually long lease (137 years) and a generous front garden. The property offers practical living space: a fitted kitchen with integrated oven and gas hob, a spacious lounge, two double bedrooms and a bathroom with shower. Gas central heating via a combi boiler and uPVC double glazing help keep running costs down; the EPC is grade C.
This is a straightforward purchase for a first-time buyer or investor wanting a low-entry price in a comfortable neighbourhood. The flat sits on a semi-detached plot with a landscaped, enclosed front garden and benefits from very cheap council tax (Band A). Broadband and mobile coverage are adequate for typical home use.
Buyers should note the apartment's modest overall size (approximately 571 sq ft) — rooms are compact but well laid out — and the local area records above-average crime, which may concern some purchasers. The property lies in a historical mining area; a mining search is recommended as part of conveyancing. Ground rent is modest at £70 and the lease length removes short-lease risk.
Overall this is a low-cost, low-risk starter home or rental purchase: good heating, long lease and no chain are strong positives, balanced by limited space and local safety and mining considerations.
