This second-floor, two-bedroom apartment sits in the heart of the city centre, offering practical city living with immediate vacancy and no onward chain. The open-plan living area and integrated kitchen suit buyers seeking a low-maintenance urban home or a lettable investment close to university and city amenities. Both double bedrooms include en-suite shower rooms, giving clear rental appeal or comfortable sharing arrangements.
Practical running costs include an annual service charge of £2,038.68 and a ground rent of £225 per year. The property is leasehold with 199 years remaining; council tax is Band C and the EPC rating is C. Heating is by electric room heaters and the main fuel is electricity, which may mean higher energy costs than gas-heated homes.
The location is central and well connected, with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — attractive for students, professionals and tenants. The building offers communal garden space and contemporary urban views, but the wider area is characterised as a cosmopolitan, student-dense neighbourhood with higher-than-average local crime levels, which may affect some buyers’ preferences.
Overall this is a straightforward, chain-free apartment with good lease length and strong rental potential, balanced by service charges, electric heating and the busiest-city-centre environment. It will suit first-time buyers wanting a compact city home, or investors targeting student or professional lettings.
