Low-maintenance city apartment with strong rental potential near transport and amenities.
Chain free with 975-year lease remaining
A centrally located one-bedroom apartment presented with contemporary fittings and a long lease, offered chain free. The open-plan living area has wooden flooring and a Juliet balcony that floods the space with natural light, while a modern kitchen includes integrated appliances and good storage. The generous double bedroom features built-in storage and the bathroom includes a bath with an overhead shower.
This property is best-suited to investors or buyers seeking a low-maintenance city-base close to transport links and amenities. It sits in a busy, multicultural student neighbourhood, which supports strong rental demand but may not suit those seeking a quiet residential street. Constructed around 1996–2002, it benefits from double glazing and low flood risk.
Buyers should note material ownership costs: an unusually high service charge (£14,712) and a substantial ground rent (£1,200). Heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, and broadband speeds are reported very slow — factors that affect running costs and tenant appeal. The lease is long (975 years) and the flat is chain free, which simplifies purchase logistics.
