This well-kept two-bedroom apartment in a gated development on Piele Road offers low-maintenance modern living with allocated off-street parking and secure electric gates. The open-plan living, dining and kitchen area creates a flexible main space for day-to-day life, while two good-sized bedrooms suit first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking straightforward accommodation with an EPC C rating.
Important practical details are clear: the property is leasehold with 103 years remaining, an annual ground rent of about £100 and a service charge of approximately £1,956 per year (£163 pcm) covering building insurance, grounds maintenance, window cleaning and communal services. Heating is by electric storage heaters and broadband speeds are average — adequate for many households but with higher running costs and lower heating efficiency than gas alternatives.
There are a few points to check before viewing. Listed details conflict about the flat’s floor level and bathroom layout (some notes reference a first-floor apartment and an en suite, while other information and floorplan describe a ground-floor unit and a single bathroom). The site faces the communal car park with no private garden and the surrounding area records higher-than-average crime and socio-economic deprivation — factors to weigh for family buyers or risk-sensitive investors.
