Two double bedrooms with master en-suite and principal bathroom
This two-bedroom first-floor apartment in Pitchcombe Close offers practical, low-maintenance living within a modern Lodge Park development. The open-plan lounge, dining area and fitted kitchen create a bright social space, complemented by a Juliet balcony and built-in hallway storage. The master bedroom includes an en-suite, with a second double bedroom and a main bathroom providing flexible accommodation for couples or sharers.
Practical benefits include allocated and visitor parking, secure intercom entry and well-kept communal grounds. Built post-2007, the property has double glazing and an EPC rating of B, making it reasonably energy efficient. Broadband speeds are average and mobile signal is excellent — useful for home working and everyday connectivity.
Important considerations: the flat is leasehold with approximately 105 years remaining, an annual service charge around £2,600 and ground rent approximately £150. Heating is via electric storage heaters which can be more costly than gas systems. Local crime levels are above average, and some nearby schools have mixed Ofsted outcomes.
Chain-free sale and a compact 606 sq ft layout make this a straightforward purchase for first-time buyers or those downsizing who prioritise low-maintenance living and good transport links. Buyers looking for long-term investment or full refurbishment potential should factor in the service charges and electric heating costs when calculating affordability.
