Chain-free two-bed conversion with private south terrace and parking — long lease, ready to personalise.
Share of freehold with 998-year lease — long-term ownership security
Set on the first floor of a handsome Victorian conversion, this well-presented two-bedroom flat combines period character with modern living. The large 18'8" reception room and two double bedrooms give comfortable space for everyday life or home working. A private south-facing terrace and communal gardens provide outdoor options, while off-street private parking is a strong practical benefit in this area.
Ownership is straightforward: share of freehold, an exceptionally long lease (998 years) and chain-free sale make for a smooth purchase. The apartment is a good fit for first-time buyers seeking space, outdoor access and long-term security in an inner-city, cosmopolitan neighbourhood with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property has an EPC rating of D and solid brick walls likely lack insulation, so energy bills and comfort could improve with investment. The service charge is approximately £1,200 per year. Local statistics indicate above-average crime levels and pockets of deprivation in the wider area, so viewing to assess the immediate street and communal environment is recommended.
Nearby schools have good Ofsted ratings and local transport links serve central areas, which supports both commuting and family life. This apartment offers a practical, characterful base with scope to upgrade energy performance and personalise finishes over time.
