Move-in ready apartment close to Metro and local shops.
- Two bedrooms, ground-floor flat with bay-windowed principal bedroom
- Newly renovated interior: modern kitchen and bathroom fitted
- 999-year lease; sold chain free
- Gas central heating and double glazing throughout
- Small shared rear yard; on-street parking only
- EPC rating C (72) with limited immediate energy savings potential
- Located within walking distance to Metro and local amenities
- Area has high crime rates and very deprived local economy
A recently refurbished two-bedroom ground-floor flat offering ready-to-live-in accommodation at a low entry price. The property benefits from a long lease (999 years), gas central heating, double glazing and a modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, making it convenient for first-time buyers seeking minimal immediate works.
Located within walking distance of the Metro and local amenities, the flat delivers strong transport links to the city centre and A19. The principal bedroom has a feature bay window and the lounge provides a comfortable reception space with an electric stove-style fire. Council tax is very cheap, which helps keep running costs low.
Buyers should note the wider area has high crime levels and is very deprived; this may affect resale and rental demand. The property sits on a terraced street with on-street parking only and a small shared rear yard. The building is of solid brick construction (likely without cavity wall insulation) which could limit immediate energy improvements despite the current EPC C rating.
Overall this is a cost-effective, chain-free purchase for a first-time buyer or a hands-on investor prepared to accept local area challenges. The flat’s long lease and recent renovation reduce short-term risk, but prospective purchasers should verify local issues and consider longer-term neighbourhood influences.
