Buyers should be aware of material local factors: the neighbourhood records very high crime levels and broadband speeds are reported as very slow, which may affect working-from-home needs. The property sits in a solid-brick terrace (likely uninsulated walls) and, while characterful, may benefit from targeted upgrading or insulation works. Overall, this is a well-proportioned period apartment in a city-centre spot, suited to first-time buyers seeking space and character or landlords targeting high rental demand.
