Spacious open-plan apartment with lift access and long lease, ready to move into.
Chain-free third-floor apartment in sought-after David Morgan building
Set within the converted David Morgan Apartments, this two-bedroom third-floor flat offers chain-free entry to city-centre living. The open-plan lounge/kitchen creates a bright, flexible social space and the property benefits from double glazing and electric underfloor heating. At approximately 743 sq ft, room proportions are generous for an apartment of this type.
Practical details suit a first-time buyer: a long lease (107 years remaining), communal lift access and no onward chain make the purchase straightforward. The building’s central location places shops, restaurants, transport links and cultural attractions on your doorstep — ideal for someone wanting a compact, walkable lifestyle or a buy-to-let opportunity aimed at students and city workers.
Buyers should factor in the running costs: an average service charge of around £4,000 per year and a ground rent of £250 are payable. Council tax is described as expensive. The local area is a cosmopolitan, student-focused neighbourhood with a very high crime rate and very high deprivation indicators, which may affect long-term resale values and tenant profiles.
Overall, this is a convenient, ready-to-occupy urban apartment that suits a buyer prioritising central location and immediate move-in. A survey is recommended to verify services and finishes; investors should weigh the management costs and local market dynamics before proceeding.
