Set within Nythe, this freshly renovated two-bedroom apartment is offered chain-free and ready to move into. The living space is bright and open-plan with a contemporary electric fireplace; both bedrooms are comfortable doubles. Recent works include new carpets, full redecoration and a new bathroom sink unit, so short-term maintenance is minimal. The long lease (979 years) gives long-term security for buyers.
Practical benefits are straightforward: well-kept communal gardens and plentiful off-street parking add convenience and kerb appeal, and the location offers fast links to the A419 and nearby hospital — useful for commuters and local professionals. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the area scores as generally affluent with low local crime.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat with electric room heaters as the main heating source; running costs may be higher than gas-heated homes. The building exterior shows mid-20th century brickwork and an unmaintained façade that may need future attention at a communal level. Flood risk is rated medium for the location and should be considered by buyers or insurers.
This property suits first-time buyers, downsizers or investors seeking a low-entry purchase with immediate rental or move-in potential. The combination of recent internal refurbishment, long lease and practical outside space makes it a straightforward, manageable purchase, while clear known issues (electric heating, building maintenance and medium flood risk) are highlighted for transparent decision-making.
