Allocated off-street parking and well-maintained communal gardens

Neighbourhood shows higher crime and area deprivation levels
Double glazing fitted before 2002; may not meet current standards

This ground-floor, one-bedroom apartment offers compact, low-maintenance living in Kidderminster’s Spennells area. Newly redecorated throughout, the flat has a bright open-plan lounge and kitchen, a double bedroom with a fitted wardrobe, and a modern bathroom — all arranged on a single level for easy access.
Practical features include double glazing, new carpets and vinyl flooring, and electric heating (panel heaters and a night-storage heater in the lounge). Allocated off-street parking and well-kept communal gardens add convenience and outdoor space without private garden upkeep. Council tax is very cheap, which helps running costs.
Important considerations: the property is leasehold, the internal area is small (compact footprint), and the neighbourhood records higher-than-average crime and area deprivation. Heating is fully electric, which may raise energy costs compared with gas-heated homes. Double glazing was fitted before 2002 and may not match current standards.
For first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors this apartment represents an affordable entry point with immediate rental or move-in potential due to its recent refurbishment and single-floor layout. Buyers seeking larger rooms, a private garden, or lower-crime locations should note the size and local area profile before viewing.
