This one-bedroom first-floor flat offers an unexpectedly private feel, thanks to its own entrance, enclosed low-maintenance garden and nearby single garage. The bright lounge/diner and modern fitted kitchen make everyday living straightforward, while a separate utility room adds practical storage and laundry space. Fibre-to-the-premises broadband and gas central heating suit modern working-from-home needs.
The double bedroom includes fitted wardrobes and useful storage. The bathroom has been recently refurbished as a wet room, reducing immediate renovation needs. At about 566 sq ft, the layout is compact but comfortable for a first-time buyer or someone downsizing seeking low-upkeep accommodation.
Important points to note: the property is leasehold with 88 years remaining and a modest ground rent of £10 per year. The service charge is £475 annually; there are lease restrictions prohibiting pets and structural alterations. The local area scores as more deprived with higher crime statistics than average, which may affect long-term resale and rental demand.
Overall, this flat suits buyers prioritising convenience and low maintenance—private outdoor space, garage parking and good transport links—provided they are comfortable with the lease length and local area profile. A survey and solicitor checks are recommended to review lease terms and confirm suitability.
