Set in a secure gated development beside the Coventry Canal, this second-floor two-bedroom flat offers bright, airy living and waterside outlooks. The open-plan living room with kitchen, windows to three sides and a large private balcony deliver strong natural light and wide city views — ideal for morning sun and relaxed evenings outdoors. Allocated residents’ parking and lift access to all floors add everyday convenience.
The building is a converted industrial-style block built c.2007–2011 and benefits from double glazing and an EPC rating of C. The flat is an efficient, traditional two-bedroom layout with a bathroom, store room and a separate heater room. Its location is practical for city living: the Canal Basin, shops, restaurants, Coventry city centre and Coventry University are all within a short walk.
Important practical details: the property is leasehold with circa 109 years remaining. Service charges run at approximately £1,448.54 every six months (about £2,897.08pa) and ground rent is currently £100pa with stepped increases later in the term. Heating is electric with room heaters rather than a communal central system, which may affect running costs. The surrounding area is classified as deprived with average local crime levels — an important consideration for some buyers.
This flat suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a well-located, low-maintenance apartment with strong rental or commuter appeal. It offers immediate move-in potential but also scope to personalise the interior; buyers should weigh the leasehold costs and electric heating against the location and secure parking benefits.
