Set within the converted Victorian Gothic Revival ‘Clock Tower’ development, this first-floor two-bedroom apartment combines period character with practical living. Large sash-style double-glazed windows, high ceilings in parts of the building and original brickwork give the home distinctive charm. The layout includes a generous lounge, fitted kitchen, two double bedrooms, ensuite to the master and a main bathroom. The apartment totals approximately 883 sq ft.
Practical features include modern electric storage heaters and double glazing, off-road parking and a storage cupboard off the landing. The property is chain free and sits close to Watergrove reservoir and local walking trails — ideal for outdoor enthusiasts. Nearby schools have good Ofsted ratings and local amenities include a pub, church and primary schools.
Important considerations: the home is leasehold and heated by electric storage heaters (higher running costs possible versus gas). Broadband speeds are reported slow in the area. The wider neighbourhood is classified as very deprived, although the immediate development benefits from very low crime and attractive communal grounds. EPC rating C.
This apartment will suit buyers seeking characterful, low-maintenance living with outdoor access and no onward chain; it also presents potential for buyers prepared to upgrade heating or broadband if desired.
