Local area: high deprivation and above-average crime
This well-kept one-bedroom apartment sits on the third floor of a contemporary development with lift access and allocated off-street parking. The open-plan lounge and kitchen benefit from natural light, double glazing and gas central heating, making the apartment straightforward to run and easy to let or occupy.
Practical details support long-term ownership: a very long lease (989 years), modest annual ground rent (£100) and a predictable quarterly service charge (£536.97). Council Tax band B is economical and broadband and mobile connectivity are reported as strong — useful for commuting or working from home.
Be candid about the neighbourhood context: local area indicators show high deprivation and above-average crime, which may concern some buyers or affect rental profiles. The block itself is modern and low-maintenance, but buyers seeking capital growth should factor local socio-economic challenges into their decision. Overall this property suits a first-time buyer or investor wanting a ready-made, low-effort home or rental with secure parking and long leasehold tenure.
