Light-filled top-floor living in Ashbrooke’s Corby Gate development — a two-bedroom apartment presented to a high standard and arranged around a generous open-plan lounge and dining area. The modern kitchen includes integrated appliances and space for large fridge/freezer; bedrooms offer built-in wardrobes and the shower room is contemporary. Outside there are well-kept communal gardens, allocated resident parking and a garage opposite the block.
This property sits within the leafy Ashbrooke conservation area, close to local amenities and good road links. The long lease (951 years remaining) and nil ground rent reduce medium‑term ownership costs, while fast broadband and nearby good schools suit families or professionals. Heating is by mains gas boiler with radiators and windows are double glazed (install date not specified).
Practical points to note: the apartment is on the top floor and accessed by communal stairs (no lift), which may matter for mobility or frequent heavy loads. The property is leasehold with a service charge (around £1,030pa) covering communal maintenance and a contribution for garage electricity. Buyers should verify lease terms and charges with their solicitor before exchange.
Overall this is a well-presented, low-maintenance apartment with generous living space and useful storage (garage), offering a comfortable, convenient base in one of Sunderland’s desirable neighbourhoods. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the layout and garden aspect.
