A compact two-bedroom first-floor apartment set within an early 20th-century brick building, offered with a very long lease and low ongoing costs. The layout is traditional and practical across about 602 sq ft, with gas central heating, later double glazing and period external character. The property will suit someone looking to downsize, buy affordably or add a modest rental unit after light updating.
Practical positives include a 952-year lease, low service charge (£26) and very low council tax, plus no flood risk and excellent mobile signal. Internally the living room features a period fireplace and ample natural light, although decor and finishes are dated and will need modernisation. The building’s solid brick construction offers robust bones but likely has no wall insulation.
Important sale details and costs: this lot is sold by the Modern Method of Auction. Bidders should review the Buyer Information Pack (£349) before bidding and understand the Reservation Fee payable on completion (4.5% of the sale price, minimum £6,600, non-refundable). If you require a mortgage, consult your lender and inspect carefully prior to bidding.
Drawbacks to note: broadband speeds are slow in the area and crime levels are reported as high; the flat will therefore suit someone prioritising affordability and proximity to local amenities over immediate move-in condition. Renovation or targeted improvements (insulation, decor updates, broadband solutions) would increase comfort and long-term value.
