Compact modern apartment with parking and loft storage, ideal for first-time buyers.
Top-floor two-bedroom apartment, approx 603 sq ft
This top-floor two-bedroom apartment in St. James Village offers practical, modern living across about 603 sq ft. The apartment feels bright with large windows, a contemporary living room that opens to a Juliet balcony, and an open-plan flow into a fitted 2000s-style kitchen. Two well-proportioned bedrooms and a stylish shower room suit a first home, buy-to-let or downsizer seeking low-maintenance accommodation.
Practical extras include allocated off-street parking, loft access for extra storage, double glazing and a mains gas boiler with radiators. The home is energy-rated C and sits on a long lease with 101 years remaining, making it straightforward for mortgages and future resale. Council tax is in Band A, so ongoing local charges are low.
Buyers should note several material factors: the development has an average service charge of £1,476 per year and a ground rent of £100. The overall size is compact at around 603 sq ft, and the surrounding neighbourhood records very high crime levels and is classed as deprived — factors to weigh for families or risk-averse buyers. The apartment is best suited to those prioritising modern, low-upkeep living, easy transport links and rental potential rather than extensive internal space or a quiet rural setting.
