A compact, modern two-bedroom ground-floor flat offering straightforward city living in B11. The open-plan lounge/kitchen is bright and practical, with double glazing and gas central heating providing immediate comfort for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. Allocated off-street parking and fast broadband suit everyday needs.
The property is small (approximately 515 sqft) but efficiently laid out across three main rooms: open-plan living/kitchen, two double bedrooms and a bathroom. The long lease (994 years) is a major ownership advantage and annual combined ground rent and service charge is £1,295.60.
Be candid about the neighbourhood realities: the area is classified as very deprived and local crime levels are high. That said, local schools include several good and outstanding options and the flat benefits from excellent mobile signal and reliable mains-gas heating.
This flat suits a first-time buyer seeking an affordable city-base, or an investor looking for a low-entry rental unit. The apartment is largely modern and move-in ready but its small size and the surrounding area's socioeconomic challenges are important factors to weigh before viewing.
