A ground-floor, one-bedroom apartment offered chain-free and with an exceptionally long lease (957 years). The layout is practical: entrance hall, lounge/diner with built-in storage and rear door to parking, small fitted kitchen and a double bedroom with fitted wardrobes. Gas central heating and UPVC double glazing provide low running maintenance, and communal gardens give a small outdoor space without upkeep.
The flat is compact and best suited to a single occupant, first-time buyer, or buy-to-let investor seeking straightforward, low-management accommodation in a central village location. Council Tax Band A keeps running costs very low. Parking to the rear and nearby amenities—shops, pharmacy, GP and bus links—make day-to-day living convenient.
There are some clear updating needs: the kitchen dates from the 1980s and would benefit from modernization, and broadband speeds are slow. The wider area has above-average crime and local deprivation indicators; potential buyers should weigh these factors against the low entry price and long lease. Purchase is leasehold, so confirm service charges and ground rent details before committing.
Overall this is an affordable, low-maintenance one-bedroom flat with good immediate rental or owner-occupier potential, provided the buyer accepts a modest renovation budget and the limitations of the local area.
