Compact, convenient first home with a long lease and low maintenance.
No onward chain — immediate completion possible
This first-floor one-bedroom flat offers a compact, modern home suited to first-time buyers, investors or those downsizing. Built in 2005 and set within a low-rise brick block, the apartment has an open lounge, fitted kitchen, bedroom and bathroom — all arranged efficiently across about 463 sq ft. The property is offered with no onward chain and a lengthy 104-year lease, simplifying purchase and letting processes.
Practical running costs are straightforward: mains gas central heating, double glazing and a modest ground rent. There is an annual service charge (approx. 1,300) to cover communal maintenance. Broadband speeds are average while mobile signal is excellent, and several well-rated primary and secondary schools are within easy reach.
Buyers should weigh clear drawbacks: the local area is classified as very deprived with high recorded crime levels, and the property is a leasehold with service charges and a small ground rent to factor into affordability. The flat is compact, so it suits buyers wanting a low-maintenance home or an investment rather than those needing extensive living space.
Overall this is a pragmatic, chain-free purchase for someone seeking a straightforward entry into ownership or a rental asset in Bilston. The combination of a modern build, long lease and simple layout offers solid short-term usability with potential for modest rental income or a comfortable first home, provided the neighbourhood factors are acceptable to the buyer.
