Compact city flat near university and transport, strong rental potential.
One-bedroom first-floor apartment, approx. 523 sq ft
A bright, contemporary one-bedroom apartment on the first floor, ideal for a single buyer or couple seeking easy city living. The open-plan kitchen and living space makes the most of the 523 sq ft layout, delivering a practical, low-maintenance home that feels larger than its footprint. Large windows and a modern finish give a fresh, airy feel throughout.
Location is a genuine strength: the flat sits within walking distance of the city centre, university and frequent public transport links, with local shops and a Tesco Express at ground level. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit remote working, while the very low crime rate provides extra reassurance.
There are important practical considerations. The property is offered to cash buyers only and is leasehold (113 years remaining). Heating is by electric room heaters rather than central heating, which may affect running costs. The building is mixed-use above retail, so some street and shop noise is possible.
For investors, the flat’s proximity to the university and the cosmopolitan student neighbourhood offers strong rental demand and straightforward management. For first-time buyers, the compact, contemporary layout presents a manageable, move-in-ready option close to amenities and transport. Be clear on the cash-only requirement and the electric heating when assessing affordability.
