Practical details: the property is leasehold with about 118 years remaining and a small ground rent of £125. Heating is electric via room heaters (no communal gas), and glazing is double glazed though installation date is unknown. These factors may affect running costs compared with gas-heated homes.
Location is a clear strength: within walking distance of Mapperley Top’s cafés, shops, bars and restaurants, with good transport links and fast broadband and mobile signal. External grounds are maintained with communal green space and parking around the estate. Local schools nearby have mostly Good Ofsted ratings.
Material drawbacks to note honestly: the immediate area records above-average crime and is classed as deprived, which may concern some buyers or affect long-term resale values. The property is modern (built 2003–2006) and structurally standard, but reliance on electric heating could mean higher energy bills. Council tax is described as affordable.
Overall this is a well-presented, conveniently located flat that suits a first-time buyer seeking low-move-in hassle or an investor targeting rental demand near Mapperley Top, provided buyers account for electric heating, leasehold tenure, and local area considerations.
