Refurbished first-floor two-bed with two balconies opposite woods; auction sale, 83-year lease..
Recently refurbished throughout with neutral decor
A recently refurbished first-floor two-bedroom apartment offering practical space and two balconies, set opposite woodland and communal green. The flat benefits from PVC double glazing, a combi gas boiler with radiators, new doors and neutral décor throughout — ready for immediate occupation or let. The kitchen has golden oak fitted units and a silver gas cooker; the bathroom is fitted with full-height PVC panels and a heated towel radiator.
This property is being sold via online auction and is chain-free, which could suit cash buyers or investors seeking a quick purchase. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting tenants who work from home. Local amenities, bus routes and good primary and secondary schools are nearby, with easy access to the A629 and M1 for commuting.
Important drawbacks are factual: the lease has 83 years remaining and will require renewal relatively soon for mortgageability and long-term security. The wider area is classified as very deprived with above-average crime statistics — worth factoring into rental appeal and insurance. Sale by auction means terms and conditions apply and finance timelines are stricter than on the open market.
Overall, the flat is a straightforward, recently updated home or rental unit for a buyer comfortable with an auction purchase and an urgent lease extension. Its low council tax band and low ground rent are financial positives, while the location opposite woods and two balconies provide genuine lifestyle and letting appeal.
