Chain-free two-bed with river views and communal garden steps from town.
Grade II listed ground-floor apartment with historic character
A ground-floor two-bedroom apartment set within a Grade II listed building on Mill Dam, offering historic character with modern touches. The open-plan living space and integrated kitchen create a sociable, easy-care layout, while large windows capture river views and bring in natural light. Communal garden space adds a peaceful outdoor area for residents.
This property is offered chain-free and has 86 years remaining on the lease, making it accessible for buyers wanting a quicker move. The price point and proximity to town centre amenities and transport links suit first-time buyers seeking a compact city-base with character.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance or refurbishment. The building lies in a high flood-risk zone and a very high-crime area, which can affect insurance costs and local security considerations. Service charge and ground rent are significant (service charge c.£1,404 pa; ground rent £1,400 pa), and the property sits in a very deprived area — all factors to weigh alongside the low asking price and council tax savings.
