Situated on the second floor of a contemporary 2021 development, this compact 392 sq ft flat offers practical, low-maintenance living for a first-time buyer. An open-plan kitchen/living area brings natural light into the well-presented interior, while a generous double bedroom and modern bathroom complete the straightforward layout. The property includes an allocated off-street parking space, visitor parking, communal bin store and bike storage.
The long lease (243 years remaining) and below-average service charge provide tenure security and predictable ownership costs. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting remote working or streaming. There is no flooding risk, and the build's thermal performance is average, helping retain warmth.
Buyers should note the flat relies on electric room heaters rather than central heating, which can raise running costs depending on usage and tariff. The surrounding area faces significant deprivation and very high crime levels, which may affect resale desirability and lifestyle. Council tax is described as cheap, and nearby state schools have generally good Ofsted ratings. This is a practical, well-kept starter home for someone prioritising modern finish, long lease and transport links over large living space or a quieter neighbourhood.
