Affordable two-bedroom starter with modern fittings and private yard.
- Newly renovated two-bedroom ground-floor flat
- Long leasehold (961 years remaining)
- Private rear yard; on-street parking only
- Double glazing; mains gas boiler and radiators
- Solid brick walls assumed uninsulated — may increase heating costs
- Located in a very deprived area; above-average crime levels
- Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal
- Very low council tax
This newly refurbished ground-floor flat combines Victorian character with contemporary finishes across a compact, practical layout. Two well-proportioned bedrooms and a bright lounge give comfortable everyday living space, while the modern kitchen and bathroom reduce immediate maintenance needs.
Practical features include double glazing, gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for home working or streaming. A private rear yard offers outdoor space for plants or a small seating area; parking is on-street at the front.
Key practical considerations: the property is leasehold (very long lease remaining), sits in an area with above-average crime and high deprivation, and the original solid-brick walls are likely uninsulated which can affect running costs. The flat suits a first-time buyer seeking affordable entry or a buy-to-let investor after local rental demand and yields.
Viewing is recommended to judge room proportions and street setting in person. The price and very low council tax make this a cost-effective option, but buyers should factor in location-related safety perceptions and possible future insulation improvements.
