This third-floor apartment occupies a convenient city-centre position, recently redecorated and carpeted for immediate occupation. The open-plan lounge/kitchen has two sets of patio doors onto a long, narrow balcony that offers elevated views over Derby. The layout is compact but well planned, with two bedrooms and a single bathroom — suited to a first home or buy-to-let.
The building offers gated rear parking with one allocated space, a secure communal entrance with intercom and a long lease (182 years). Energy performance is good (EPC Band B), heating is gas-fired via a boiler and radiators, and modern double glazing is installed — all of which helps keep running costs low.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat: the service charge is approximately £1,300 per year and ground rent £100. The neighbourhood is a cosmopolitan student area and local crime levels are above average, which may affect some buyers’ preferences. There is no private garden and communal outdoor space is limited.
Overall this is a low-maintenance, well-presented city-centre apartment with immediate rental or owner-occupier potential. It will particularly suit investors seeking a centrally located rental or buyers wanting easy access to shops, transport and university amenities, provided they accept the leasehold costs and urban neighbourhood character.
