Affordable, low-running-cost one-bedroom flat with private communal parking and fast broadband..
Well-presented one-bedroom flat, practical 506 sq ft layout
This well-presented one-bedroom flat occupies a first-floor position in a modest three-storey block, offering a large lounge/diner, separate kitchen and a practical shower room. The layout makes the most of 506 sq ft, and features include double glazing, mains gas central heating and private communal parking to the rear. Fast broadband and good transport links — including nearby Coseley rail station — make it a practical pick for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor.
The building dates from the late 1970s–early 1980s and appears to be maintained to a reasonable standard; there is limited communal garden space and the property sits directly on a residential street. The leasehold tenure comes with a long lease and a below-average service charge (£804), while council tax is described as very cheap — positives for running costs and rental yields.
Buyers should note a few practical points: glazing was installed before 2002 (so not recent), walls have partial cavity insulation (assumed), and the communal outside space is small. Leasehold ownership can carry extra admin costs (lease packs, etc.), and access to the flat is via communal stairs.
Overall this flat offers straightforward, low-maintenance accommodation in an accessible location. It suits someone seeking an affordable entry into the market or an investor looking for a rental with low service charges and good transport links.
