A seventh-floor corner one-bedroom apartment in Marco Island, offering dual-aspect city views and generous natural light from floor-to-ceiling windows. The 474 sq ft layout gives a defined bedroom plus open-plan living and kitchenette — a rare one-bedroom plan in a building where studios are common. The 150-year lease, chain-free sale and central NG1 location make this an obvious purchase for buy-to-let investors or a single buyer seeking easy city living.
Internally the flat is modern in style but shows signs of age and would benefit from cosmetic updating to maximise rental or resale value. Heating is by electric room heaters and the property has integrated kitchen appliances; there is no external outdoor space. Building amenities include lift access, secure entry and concierge, and the flat sits close to Nottingham Trent University, tram and bus routes.
Be clear on the constraints: the property is leasehold (long lease), in a very deprived city-centre ward, and uses electric heating rather than gas. Practical considerations include a modest floor area, no private garden, and likely demand from students and city professionals rather than families. For investors, the central location and potential rental yield are the primary attractions; for an owner-occupier this is compact, low-maintenance city living with strong transport and amenities on the doorstep.
