Quiet, well-presented two-bedroom apartment on the second floor of a purpose-built block in Woolton. At 517 sq ft it offers a compact, efficient layout with contemporary finishes in the living room and kitchen, and generous natural light from large windows. The long lease (249 years) and low council tax make running costs attractive.
Currently let to a long-standing tenant at £675 pcm with potential to increase nearer £800 pcm, this flat suits buy-to-let investors seeking immediate income and simple management. The property sits in an affluent, self-sufficient retirement area close to Woolton Village amenities and good primary and secondary schools.
Practical considerations: heating is via electric storage heaters and the EPC is rating D. Broadband and mobile signal are average and the flat is small in overall size. Being leasehold, purchasers should note the tenure and any associated service charges or ground rent. No flooding risk and the build dates to the 1980s/1990s.
Overall this is a sensible, low-maintenance rental opportunity with upside on rental income and long-term tenure security. Viewings are recommended to assess the apartment’s condition and potential improvements to boost value or rental yield.
