Summary - 44 Medway Court, ST HELENS WA9 2AZ
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Entry-price modern apartment with parking and long lease near local schools.
Two bedrooms, around 750 sq ft, open-plan living/kitchen
A compact two-bedroom leasehold flat set in a modern development, offered at an entry-level price ideal for a buy-to-let purchase or low-cost owner-occupation. The apartment (around 750 sq ft) sits over standard ceiling heights, benefits from double glazing and an open-plan living/kitchen that receives good natural light. One allocated off-street parking space and nearby guest parking add practical appeal for tenants.
The building was constructed 2007–2011 and the long lease (approximately 105 years remaining) reduces immediate title risk. Annual service charge is £1,788.44 (paid in two instalments) with a small ground rent of £216.78; the service charge is due for periodic review (next review 2036). Heating is via electric storage heaters and the property runs on electric mains — running costs may be higher than gas-heated homes.
This location overlooks a park and sits close to a mix of local amenities and several primary and secondary schools rated Good by Ofsted, which supports tenant demand for families. However, the wider area has notable social and economic challenges and a higher-than-average crime rate, which will affect desirability and rental values in comparison to more affluent neighbourhoods.
For investors, the low purchase price and long lease make this a straightforward acquisition if you accept the area profile and plan for standard electric-heating running costs. For cash buyers or those seeking an affordable first step on the housing ladder, it offers move-in-ready accommodation but limited premium upside without investment in area-wide improvements.
