A freshly renovated two-bedroom top-floor apartment offering a ready-to-move-in home or let-ready investment in CF11. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner and neutral decor make the 645 sq ft layout practical for everyday living, while an en-suite to the main bedroom and a separate family bathroom add convenience.
Practical extras include one allocated off-street parking space, a bike store, gas central heating and double glazing. The lease is extremely long (978 years), reducing long-lease concerns for buyers; energy efficiency is above average.
Buyers should factor ongoing costs and local context: this is a leasehold property with an annual service charge of about £1,800 and ground rent of £295. The local area scores high for diversity and amenities but also records very high crime and very high deprivation; communal outdoor space is minimal. Overall, the flat suits first-time buyers seeking a low-maintenance city home or investors targeting straightforward rental stock, provided they are comfortable with the neighbourhood profile and service charges.
