Bright, compact and recently renovated, this top-floor two-bedroom apartment is an economical next step on the property ladder. The living space is well laid out for everyday life, with a light lounge/diner and a fitted kitchen. Attic storage adds useful space where built-in storage is limited.
Practical ownership benefits include an owned garage, an allocated parking space and a long lease with a share of freehold — rare conveniences for a flat of this size. The block sits close to local shops, riverside walks and good road and transport links, making commuting and day-to-day errands straightforward.
Buyers should note the apartment footprint is modest and Bedroom Two is small, so the layout suits a single occupant, couple or first-time buyers rather than those needing large family accommodation. There is no private garden and external grounds are communal.
There are running costs and local factors to weigh: an average service charge of £1,548 and a very high local crime rate are material considerations for safety and monthly budgeting. Overall, this is a tidy, move-in-ready flat offering convenient parking and strong transport links — a practical choice for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a compact, well-presented home.
