Chain-free first-floor flat with garden and garage — ideal for first-time buyers.
One double bedroom, approximately 537 sq ft living space
A deceptively spacious one-bedroom first-floor apartment occupying around 537 sq ft, offered chain-free and sold via the Modern Method of Auction. The flat sits in a 1950s residential setting with a modern fitted kitchen and bathroom, double-glazed windows and laminate flooring in the living room, making it ready to move into for an owner-occupier or straightforward to let as a rental. A large communal garden and a garage add outdoor space and secure parking — uncommon extras for a property of this size.
Important sale terms are set by the auction process: the buyer signs a Reservation Agreement and pays a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.5% (minimum £6,600 inc VAT), plus a Buyer Information Pack fee. Tenure is recorded as unknown, so bidders should confirm title and any tenancy details before committing and speak with their lender if a mortgage is required.
The location scores well for digital connectivity (excellent mobile signal and fast broadband) and has a selection of nearby primary and secondary schools with good and outstanding Ofsted ratings. Be mindful the wider area is classified as very deprived and local demographics indicate lower degree-educated percentages; this can affect long-term capital growth and lettings but also creates potential for rental yield or affordable entry for first-time buyers.
Overall, this flat suits a first-time buyer seeking an affordable, move-in-ready home with outdoor space, or an investor looking for a low-entry rental opportunity. Prospective buyers should review the Buyer Information Pack, check tenure and local factors, and factor the auction fees into their budget before bidding.
