At about 320 sq ft, the layout makes efficient use of space with a sitting area opening to a separate bedroom zone, kitchen, bathroom and a handy store room — suited to a first-time buyer, commuter or buy-to-let investor.
The building sits in a modern red-brick development with communal gardens and off-street parking. Practical features include double glazing and an EPC rating of C. Local amenities, good schools and fast broadband help make the location convenient and well-connected.
Important practical points: the flat is leasehold with roughly 118 years remaining, an annual service charge of around £1,014 and ground rent of £80 per year. Heating is by electric storage heaters rather than gas central heating, which may affect running costs. The sale is a probate matter — buyers should expect the usual probate timescales and checks.
Overall this is a small, affordable property presenting clear value for a buyer seeking a low-entry-price home close to transport links, or an investor after a straightforward, easy-to-manage tenancy. The apartment will particularly suit those happy with a compact living space and electric heating, and who accept the costs associated with leasehold ownership and service charges.
