Buyers should note the apartment is small at around 531 sq ft and sits in a neighbourhood classified as a multicultural, cosmopolitan student area with a higher-than-average crime rate. Annual charges total approximately £1,139.99 (service/maintenance circa £739.99 plus cyclical maintenance £400) and ground rent £75, which should be factored into ongoing costs. The flat is ready to move into but offers limited scope to extend internally, so consider renovation potential modest.
Overall, this apartment suits someone wanting a secure, low-upkeep city-base close to transport, shops and nightlife — particularly first-time buyers or investors looking for a centrally located rental. Be mindful of neighbourhood factors and service charges when assessing long-term suitability.
