Allocated off-street parking space to the front
Leasehold with c.107 years remaining; freehold claim requires legal check
Double glazing and mains gas central heating installed

This first-floor two-bedroom flat offers a compact, practical home or a straightforward rental opportunity in Whitchurch, close to local shops, schools and bus links. The lounge at the front benefits from good natural light and the fitted kitchen and bathroom provide everyday functionality. An allocated off-street parking space adds welcome convenience in a busy area.
The property is presented in generally good condition with double glazing and mains gas central heating via boiler and radiators — ready to occupy for a first-time buyer or let to tenants. At about 580 sq ft the accommodation is modest but well laid out: a generous double bedroom plus a smaller second room suitable as a child’s bedroom, guest room or home office.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold with approximately 107 years remaining; the sales information also states the freehold is included, so the legal title should be checked and clarified before exchange. The building dates from the mid-20th century and walls are likely uninsulated, so some buyers may want to budget for additional insulation or energy improvements.
The area is marked by higher-than-average crime and significant local deprivation — factors that affect long-term demand and resale values. For investors this flat offers simple rental potential in a city suburb; for first-time buyers it provides an affordable entry into home ownership but buyers should satisfy themselves on title details and consider modest upgrades to improve energy performance and long-term appeal.
