Summary - 17 SWINFORD LEYS WOMBOURNE WOLVERHAMPTON WV5 8HT
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact, chain-free flat with garage, long lease and nearby amenities.
Ground-floor one-bedroom flat, easy single-story living
A compact ground-floor one-bedroom apartment offering straightforward, low-maintenance living in a quiet Swinford Leys cul-de-sac. The flat includes off-road parking, a single garage and shared rear garden/drying area, making it unusually well-provisioned for its size.
The property is practical for a downsizer or first-time buyer looking to avoid stairs and outside maintenance. It has an extended lease (139 years remaining), vacant possession and no upward chain, so completion can be uncomplicated. Local conveniences are close by — Sainsbury’s and Lidl are within easy reach, regular buses serve nearby roads and the Wombrook green corridor is useful for short walks.
Internally the accommodation is modest (circa 370 sq ft) and serviceable: lounge, fitted kitchen, bathroom and a double bedroom with fitted wardrobes. The building benefits from double glazing and electric storage heating, but the EPC rating is D and some fixtures and finishes are dated, so cosmetic updating could be required.
Key selling points are ease of entry, parking plus garage, long lease and low council tax. Important negatives to note are the small internal footprint, electric storage heaters (higher running costs than gas central heating), a D energy rating and likely need for modernisation to raise comfort and market value.
