Gas central heating and fast broadband make it ready for immediate occupation.

Council tax is described as very cheap. Mobile signal is excellent and the area has fast broadband — useful for commuters or rental tenants.
Notable local facts: the wider area is classified as a cosmopolitan, student-heavy neighbourhood within a migrant commuter district and the locality has high crime levels and above-average deprivation. These factors affect long-term demand and should be considered by buyers and investors. The building dates from the early 1990s and appears broadly well maintained, but buyers should check communal condition and services as part of any survey.
This flat will suit first-time buyers seeking a city-edge starter home or investors looking for a rental in a well-connected area. It offers convenience, potential rental appeal and straightforward living, but the social context and service costs are material considerations.
