Summary - Ashley Place, EH6 5GB EH6 5GB
2 bed 2 bath Flat
Move-in ready first-floor flat with parking, communal gardens and strong connectivity.
743 sq ft, two bedrooms including ensuite master
Set within a recent brick development just east of the city centre, this two-bedroom first-floor flat offers 743 sq ft of well-presented, move-in accommodation. The open-plan living, dining and kitchen space is bright and practical, with oak-style flooring and French doors to a Juliet balcony. The master bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes and an ensuite shower; a second double has its own storage. Gas central heating and double glazing keep running costs reasonable.
Residents benefit from a maintained communal garden and private residents' car park. The property is freehold and in good decorative order throughout, so it's ready to occupy or let immediately. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent — practical for remote working and streaming.
Be aware of the local context: the wider area is classified as a cosmopolitan, student-heavy neighbourhood with a migrant-commuter profile and relatively high area deprivation. Expect typical city-centre noise levels and a lively, mixed local community rather than a quiet suburban setting. The communal areas and garden are managed by a factor, with service charges averaging £1,080 per year (about £90/month).
This flat suits a first-time buyer seeking a low-maintenance city base or an investor targeting steady rental demand from students and young professionals. It presents straightforward living with good rental potential, but buyers wanting quieter, more suburban surroundings should note the locality’s character.
