Set within an Art Deco development on Viceroy Close, this ground-floor three-bedroom apartment offers spacious rooms and practical living across about 974 sq ft. The layout includes a large living room with bay window, separate dining room, fitted kitchen, three bedrooms and a bathroom with separate shower — good for families, sharers or an investor seeking rental demand close to universities and the Queen Elizabeth Medical Complex.
The scheme provides on-site parking, well-kept communal grounds and an on-site caretaker. Service charge includes communal central heating and hot water via a community scheme, which simplifies bills but contributes to a higher annual service charge. The property has solid brick walls (likely uninsulated) and an EPC of D, so there is scope to improve energy efficiency and reduce running costs.
Practical points to note: the flat is leasehold with 97 years remaining, a ground rent of £100 per year and a service charge of £6,088.05 per annum. These running costs and the remaining lease term are material considerations for buyers and mortgage lenders and may affect future resale value unless extended.
This is a characterful, well-located apartment with clear potential: cosmetic updating and energy-efficiency work would increase comfort and value. It will suit a wide range of buyers wanting convenient inner-city living — from families and professionals to investors targeting student or medical-worker lets — provided they budget for ongoing service charges and consider lease-extension options.
