Bright two-bedroom first-floor flat in a modern brick building, suited to first-time buyers, couples or buy-to-let investors. The open-plan living/kitchen and a master en suite provide practical, low-maintenance living in a compact 646 sq ft footprint. Residents’ off-street parking and a balcony/juliette bring useful convenience and light. Energy rating C71 and double glazing offer reasonable thermal performance, although heating is by electric room heaters.
This is a leasehold property with 106 years remaining. Annual charges are explicit: service charge about £1,645 and ground rent £250. Council Tax Band C keeps ongoing costs predictable, but the local area shows high crime rates and very high deprivation—important considerations for buyers and landlords assessing long-term desirability and rental demand.
Accommodation is neutrally finished and ready to move into or decorate to taste; finishes are basic rather than premium. There is no private garden and room sizes are small-to-average, so the flat is best for one or two occupants rather than a larger family. The building’s communal maintenance and recent construction style reduce day-to-day upkeep but mean buyers should budget for the service charge.
In short: a practical, well-presented flat with clear running costs and straightforward condition. It represents an accessible entry point to the local market, especially for a first-time buyer or investor prepared to accept area-wide social challenges and compact living.
