A compact first-floor one-bedroom flat on Roberts Street, offered chain-free and with a very long lease (approx. 996 years). The layout is straightforward: private front entrance, living room, fitted kitchen, double bedroom with built-in storage and a shower room. The apartment benefits from double glazing, mains gas supply, and low council tax, keeping running costs modest.
This property will suit a first-time buyer or buyer looking for a low-maintenance home close to central Grimsby and Cleethorpes. The enclosed front garden adds a small outdoor space rarely found at this price point. Shared ownership of 50% of the freehold with the ground-floor flat gives some control over the building’s management while still providing predictable tenure.
Buyers should note the wider area is classified as very deprived with high local crime, and the building’s solid-brick walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation. Heating is by room heaters supplemented by mains gas; the flat appears well-presented but is best for those prioritising affordability over extensive space or premium neighbourhood amenities.
Overall, this is an affordable entry-level flat with long lease security and low ongoing costs. It offers sensible scope for simple cosmetic updates rather than major structural works, and is best for purchasers comfortable buying into a constrained, blue-collar neighbourhood.
