A bright, chain-free one-bedroom flat in a modern development within a short walk of Newbury Park Central Line. The open-plan lounge and fitted kitchen create a practical living space, and the double bedroom includes fitted wardrobes for storage. Lift access and residents’ off-street parking make day-to-day life straightforward.
The property is offered with a long lease (102 years) and low council tax, which supports affordability for first-time buyers. The block is relatively recent (circa 2003–2006) and benefits from double glazing and contemporary finishes in the bathroom and kitchen. The apartment’s compact 474 sq ft footprint suits someone seeking a manageable home or a well-located starter property.
Buyers should note a few practical drawbacks: heating is by electric room heaters, which can be more costly than gas central heating, and broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow. Crime levels in the local area are higher than average, so consider security and commuting needs when viewing. Ground rent is modest at £200 per year.
Overall this is a sensible, lower-cost entry onto the market near good schools and excellent transport links. It will suit a buyer wanting a straightforward, move-in-ready home close to the Central Line, or an investor seeking a lettable one-bedroom with immediate access to London.
