No onward chain — ready for a prompt sale
A light-filled first-floor apartment with a private ground-floor entrance, allocated parking and pleasant, well-tended communal grounds. The layout includes a good-size living room, separate dining kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom — compact and straightforward for a first home or buy-to-let.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (962 years remaining), an off-street allocated parking space, modest service charge (£400) and a low council tax band. This chain-free sale makes for a quicker move-in or rental turnaround.
Important drawbacks are clear: the home is small at about 608 sq ft and relies on electric room heaters as the main heating source, which can mean higher running costs than gas central heating. The local area shows higher-than-average crime and relative deprivation, which may affect resale or rental desirability for some buyers.
Overall, this property suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a compact, low-maintenance apartment with long lease security and easy parking — provided you accept the smaller floorplan and the trade-offs of electric heating and local area statistics.
