Set on the fifth floor of a mid-rise block, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath flat extends to 853 sq ft and offers a spacious living room and fitted kitchen. The apartment benefits from two lifts, communal gardens and a large reserve fund for the block — practical comforts for someone seeking low-effort living.
The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and shows a Brutalist concrete exterior that will suit buyers happy to modernise. Internally the layout is traditional with two good-sized bedrooms, a shower room and a family bathroom; the fitted kitchen appears well maintained. Parking and leafy communal grounds add convenience and a pleasant outlook.
Important considerations: the lease has around 50 years remaining, which may restrict mortgage options and could require lease extension work and cost. The block is system-built with assumed lack of cavity insulation, and glazing installation dates are unknown — buyers should factor potential retrofit or energy-improvement costs. Broadband speeds are reported slow; mobile signal is excellent.
This property is chain-free and practical for downsizers or those seeking a manageable flat with scope to update. Commission a survey and check mortgage availability given the lease length before proceeding.
