This well-presented two-bedroom ground-floor flat offers bright, comfortable living and direct garden access, ideal for a first home or buy-to-let. Recently renovated throughout, the apartment benefits from a contemporary fitted kitchen, modern bathroom and a large living room that opens onto a private outdoor space. At about 717 sq ft, the layout suits a couple, small family or a tenant-focused investor seeking move-in-ready accommodation.
Set in a quiet, popular residential area with strong transport links and nearby amenities, the flat is freehold and on the ground floor of a three-storey mid-20th-century block. The communal rear garden is mature and pleasant, while the living room’s large glass doors bring in good natural light. Broadband speeds are fast, making the property suitable for home working; mobile reception is average.
Buyers should note the wider context: the surrounding area is classified as very deprived, which can affect resale dynamics and local services. The block’s exterior shows post-war-era wear and would benefit from maintenance work at some point, although the flat itself has been newly renovated and is largely move-in ready. Parking is on-street only; there is no allocated parking.
Overall, this flat combines practical, modern interiors with a private garden and convenient connections. It will suit first-time buyers seeking a low-maintenance starter home, downsizers wanting ground-floor convenience, or investors looking for a straightforward rental property — bearing in mind the local socioeconomic profile and communal maintenance responsibilities.
