This top-floor two-bedroom flat in SN25 offers a sensible, well-presented home for first-time buyers or investors. Set in a modern Georgian-style block built 2003–2006, the property features a separate contemporary kitchen, a spacious reception room with wooden flooring, and two double bedrooms — one with built-in wardrobes. The apartment totals about 646 sq ft and benefits from an EPC C rating, double glazing and allocated off-street parking.
Practical running costs and tenure are clear: the flat is leasehold with 128 years remaining, a service charge averaging £1,560 and an annual ground rent of £300. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which are typical for the build but can be more costly than mains gas; consider this for longer-term running costs. Council tax band C and fast broadband help make the flat suitable for everyday family life or rental demand.
Location is a strength: very low crime, easy access to public transport, nearby green spaces and the Orbital retail area within walking distance. Several ‘Good’-rated primary and secondary schools are close by, supporting family buyers. The top-floor position provides privacy and natural light but may involve climbing stairs, which could affect mobility or rental market preferences.
Overall, this is a sensible, ready-to-move-in apartment with straightforward upkeep and clear costs. It will suit first-time buyers seeking a manageable home in a family-oriented neighbourhood, or investors looking for a low-maintenance rental in a well-connected part of Swindon.
