Light-filled, chain-free and move-in ready, this modern two-bedroom apartment on Willow Way suits first-time buyers seeking space and convenience. At about 680 sq ft, the open-plan living area and private balcony create comfortable everyday living, while a communal roof terrace adds useful outdoor space for socialising and city views.
Practical features include triple glazing and a long lease (106 years remaining). The property sits within a well-served, inner-city neighbourhood with excellent transport links, shops, cafés and several well-rated primary and secondary schools close by — a clear advantage for commuters and young families.
Buyers should note material running costs and utilities: a service charge of £3,479 pa and ground rent of £350 pa apply. Heating is electric via room heaters rather than gas central heating, which can affect energy bills. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow, and local crime levels are above average, which may influence security or insurance considerations.
Overall this apartment offers contemporary, low-maintenance living and strong location benefits, but budget-conscious buyers should factor in service charges, electric heating costs and slower broadband when assessing value and ongoing costs.
