This ground-floor one-bedroom flat offers a private entrance, generous front and rear gardens, and flexible living space across approximately 700 sq ft. The bright lounge flows into a sun room that overlooks the rear garden, creating a pleasant spot for morning light. The double bedroom is spacious and the shower room provides a practical three-piece layout.
The property requires modernisation throughout: the kitchen needs refurbishment and general updating will be needed to realise the flat’s full potential. For buyers comfortable with renovation, this creates an opportunity to add significant value at an entry-level price point. Timber shed and off-street parking are useful practical extras.
Practical benefits include freehold tenure, no flood risk, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — all helpful for remote working or renting. The area is described as very deprived, which may affect resale dynamics, but the low council tax and affordable asking price can appeal to first-time buyers, downsizers or investors seeking uplift through improvement.
Overall, this is a straightforward, value-focused proposition: a roomy ground-floor flat with private outdoor space that rewards sensible modernisation and offers immediate occupancy potential once updated.
