Set within the converted Elisabeth Mill, this ground-floor two-bedroom flat blends industrial character with contemporary fittings. High ceilings, exposed brick and large windows give the main living space a loft-like feel, while a modern open-plan kitchen and generous room proportions maximise the compact 562 sq ft footprint.
Practical details suit first-time buyers or investors: a long remaining lease (242 years), below-average service charge (£780 pa) and modest ground rent (£137 pa). Secure fob access and a welcoming communal atrium provide light and a sense of arrival, and the building sits in a low-crime area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Buyers should note heating is by electric room heaters and the property relies on electricity as its main fuel, which can be costlier than gas. The size is relatively small and the local area is classified as deprived; nearby schools have mixed Ofsted outcomes, including some rated ‘Requires improvement’ or ‘Inadequate’. These local factors affect long-term resale and rental demand and are important for budget planning.
Overall, the flat offers immediate move-in appeal and strong character for those seeking a distinctive starter home or a rental asset with reasonable running costs and minimal service charges. Budget for higher energy bills and assess local schooling or investment returns according to your priorities.
