Ground-floor one-bedroom flat with private rear garden
A well-presented ground-floor one-bedroom flat with the rare benefit of a private rear garden and an allocated off-street parking space. The layout gives a separate living room, double bedroom, fitted kitchen and shower-room; total floor area about 552 sq ft, suitable for a single occupant or couple. The long 125-year lease from 2006, very low ground rent (£10 pa) and modest service charge (£270 pa) make the tenure straightforward and cost-predictable.
Practical running costs are attractive: EPC band C and Council Tax Band A help keep bills down. The flat is set within a semi‑detached cluster of brick homes with double glazing and mains gas central heating; externally it appears well maintained and internally it will suit buyers wanting a move-in-ready, low-maintenance home or a rental investment with good local demand.
Buyers should note material context: the immediate area is classed as very deprived with higher-than-average crime levels, which may affect long-term capital growth and lettability for some tenants. Accommodation is compact with limited internal storage and modest garden size; cosmetic updating could add value but substantial reconfiguration is unlikely due to the compact footprint.
Overall this property offers an affordable entry point to ownership in Wolverhampton — long lease, low holding costs and private outdoor space are clear strengths. It will most appeal to first-time buyers seeking a low-cost starter home, downsizers wanting ground-floor convenience, or investors targeting steady rental demand, subject to personal risk tolerance about the local area.
