A bright, compact one-bedroom apartment in Philadelphia House, set close to shops and public transport. Large UPVC windows flood the open-plan lounge and kitchen with light, while modern wood-effect flooring and a built-in window seat add everyday comfort. The kitchen is fitted with contemporary gloss units, integrated appliances and handy worktop space for city living.
The generous double bedroom offers room for wardrobes and storage; the bathroom is a contemporary three-piece suite with a full-size bath and overhead mixer shower. Practical touches include intercom entry, an internal storage/utility cupboard housing the hot water tank, and the property is offered fully furnished for a quick move-in or immediate rental.
Important practical considerations: the flat is leasehold, sold chain-free, with an annual service charge of £1,503.67 and ground rent of £125. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than central gas, which can increase running costs. The wider area is a cosmopolitan, multicultural student neighbourhood and has a higher-than-average crime level; weigh location benefits against lifestyle and security needs.
Overall, this apartment suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-maintenance city home with good transport links and strong rental potential. It requires little cosmetic work and offers immediate occupancy, but check running costs and lease terms carefully before committing.
