A chain-free one-bedroom apartment on the second floor, offered with a very long lease (approx. 976 years remaining) and resident off-street parking. At about 410 sq ft, the apartment is compact but well laid out, with a generous living room opening into the kitchen and a large double bedroom. The building dates from the early 2000s and benefits from double glazing and an EPC rating of B.
This home suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor looking for a low-maintenance property close to local amenities and good schools. Commuter links are nearby with bus routes into Blackburn town centre, Accrington and Preston. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, which supports home working or renting to tenants who need connectivity.
Notable costs and constraints are straightforward: the property is leasehold with ground rent currently unknown and an average service charge of £1,080 per year (£90 pcm). Heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives. The surrounding area registers higher crime statistics and is in a very deprived ward, which may affect resale values and rental demand in some market segments.
Internally the apartment is presented in neutral decor with practical finishes, an integrated oven and induction hob in the kitchen, and a three-piece bathroom with shower over bath. For buyers willing to accept a smaller overall footprint and the running-cost considerations, this offers an affordable entry into the Blackburn market or a straightforward lettable investment near strong local schools.
