Important lease and cost information is disclosed plainly. The property is leasehold with approximately 61 years remaining; some mortgage lenders may refuse loans on this term. Annual service charge and ground rent are significant (around £3,000 service charge and £356 ground rent), so factor running costs into affordability calculations. Heating is electric storage; buyers should consider energy costs and any preference for alternative heating systems.
This apartment will suit a downsizer or retired buyer seeking convenience, social communal facilities and a city-centre location. It offers straightforward, comfortable living but is best viewed with awareness of lease length and ongoing charges — suitable for cash buyers or those who can confirm mortgage eligibility on the remaining lease term.
