This bright two-bedroom third-floor apartment offers a ready-to-move-in home in a modern purpose-built block, ideal for first-time buyers. The open-plan living and kitchen area has natural light and a Juliet balcony, creating an airy feel for everyday living and small-scale entertaining. Both bedrooms are generous doubles, giving space for a home office or guest room.
Practical running costs are clear: the property is leasehold with 155 years remaining, an annual service charge of £863.28 and ground rent of £359.68. Heating is electric with wall-mounted heaters and the property relies on electricity for fuel, which may affect ongoing bills. Broadband speeds are reported slow in the area.
Externally the development is generally well maintained but some render staining and minor external wear are visible and could need attention at communal level. There is no private garden, however the flat has an allocated off-street parking bay and easy access to local walking and cycling routes, nearby schools and the A4174 ring road.
For a first-time buyer seeking a low-maintenance modern home in an affluent, well-connected neighbourhood, this apartment presents a practical and affordable step onto the ladder. Investors will also note the uncomplicated layout and long lease, though prospective purchasers should factor in electric heating and local broadband limitations.
