Compact contemporary home with long lease and parking, ready to move into.
Private balcony for outdoor space and morning coffee
This one-bedroom apartment offers low-maintenance, move-in-ready living in a modern townhouse development. An open-plan living area and integrated kitchen create a bright, usable space for daily life and small-scale entertaining, while a private balcony provides an outdoor spot for morning coffee.
Practical strengths include off-street parking, a very long lease (992 years) and no onward chain, making completion straightforward. The property is an average-sized 538 sq ft, with a B-rated EPC and modern finishes throughout. These factors suit first-time buyers seeking convenience and a straightforward purchase.
Buyers should note the ongoing costs: an average service charge of approximately £1,400 and a ground rent of £380 per year. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than a central system, which can increase running costs compared with gas central heating. Local area indicators show higher crime levels and greater deprivation than average, which may affect resale or rental appeal.
Overall this apartment is a practical, contemporary option for a first-time buyer or investor looking for a long lease and immediate occupancy. It balances easy living and nearby amenities with some elevated running costs and local area challenges that buyers should weigh during viewing and budgeting.
