A compact, modern ground-floor flat offered as 65% shared ownership (or full market price £160,000). The long 995-year lease provides ownership security, and the apartment includes allocated off-street parking plus visitor spaces — a practical benefit for commuters and small households.
Inside, the open-plan living area combines lounge, dining and a contemporary fitted kitchen, while a double bedroom and a sleek bathroom complete the layout. The finish is modern and low-maintenance, with gas central heating and conventional brick-and-block construction helping to keep running costs straightforward.
Important drawbacks are clear and factual: the property is small at about 327 sqft and carries an average service charge of £1,115 per year. It is located in an area with very high deprivation and above-average crime rates, which may affect resale or rental appeal for some buyers. Council tax is very cheap and ground rent is nominal, but prospective purchasers should factor local area conditions into their decision.
This home suits a first-time buyer or someone seeking an affordable entry into ownership with commuter links nearby. It offers sensible modern living with renovation potential limited mainly to cosmetic changes; viewers should consider size and local area characteristics before proceeding.
