Spacious town-centre 2-bed with parking and long lease — vacant or tenanted.
Two double bedrooms with generous open-plan kitchen/living space
A bright, modern two-bedroom ground-floor flat in Ushers Court, built in 2009 and originally the show apartment. The open-plan kitchen/living room and two double bedrooms give the feel of a larger home, helped by large double-glazed windows and a practical layout. The development includes secure entry, lift access and a generous allocated parking space in the gated courtyard.
Practical details support both first-time buyers and investors: vacant possession or the option to buy with tenants in situ, a long lease (982 years) and an EPC rating of C. Council Tax Band B and a modest service/ground rent (reported at £286) make ownership predictable, while the central town location is an easy walk to the railway station and local amenities.
Be aware of a few material drawbacks. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, which can lead to higher running costs. The area records higher crime and local deprivation indicators, which may affect rental demand or resale perception for some buyers. Broadband is average and there is no significant flood risk.
Overall this is a straightforward, low-maintenance modern apartment with strong practical appeal for a first-time buyer seeking central convenience or an investor looking for a town-centre let. The long lease and no onward chain simplify purchase logistics, but budget realistically for heating costs and factor local area considerations into your plans.
