This ground-floor one-bedroom flat sits in a quiet cul-de-sac and is offered chain free, making a straightforward purchase for a buyer seeking immediate possession. The accommodation includes a bright living room, a double bedroom with fitted wardrobes, a compact kitchen and a modern bathroom — all presented in good decorative order.
The property benefits from an attractive front garden, mains gas heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing and a very low council tax band A, helping running costs. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and local schools and amenities are within easy reach, suiting first-time buyers or downsizers.
A material consideration is the short remaining lease of 56 years; some mortgage lenders may refuse finance without a lease extension, which will be an additional cost and process for a buyer. EPC rating D and above-average local crime are facts to weigh alongside the home's positives.
Overall, this compact flat offers an affordable, low-running-cost home in a comfortable neighbourhood but will suit buyers prepared to address the lease length and take on any future maintenance or improvement projects.
