Floor-to-ceiling glazing and neutral finishes create an airy, low-maintenance home ready to move into or customise.

Residents have access to on-site amenities including a gym, spa, swimming pool and 24-hour concierge, enhancing everyday convenience and lifestyle. Heating is provided by a community scheme, which simplifies individual boiler maintenance but may be linked to building service arrangements. The apartment is leasehold and council tax is expensive — important cost considerations for budgeting.
This location sits in a busy inner-city, cosmopolitan quarter popular with professional service workers. There are several well-rated local schools and a wide range of shops, cafés and transport options close by. Be aware the wider area records high crime levels and higher deprivation indices; buyers should weigh these factors alongside the apartment’s strong central location and amenities.
Overall, this is a city-focused one-bed that suits a first-time buyer or professional seeking a well-equipped, low-maintenance base with excellent connectivity and striking views, provided they accept leasehold ownership and the local area’s safety and cost trade-offs.
