Move-in ready apartment with long lease and communal gardens.
Ground-floor one-bedroom, 468 sq ft living space
A well-presented ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in St. Marys Court, offering 468 sq ft of comfortable living space ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a move-in ready home. The flat benefits from a re-fitted kitchen, a large double bedroom with built-in wardrobes, gas central heating and UPVC double glazing, plus external secure storage and direct access to communal gardens.
Practical running costs and tenure are favourable: the lease has recently been extended to about 175.5 years remaining, and combined ground rent and service charge currently total £1,592.88 per year (service charge quoted elsewhere as £1,237 average). Council tax is very inexpensive. On-street parking is available nearby, and the location is close to local shops, leisure amenities and several well-rated schools.
Buyers should note the property sits in an area described as ‘ageing urban communities’ with above-average crime levels and wider area indicators of deprivation. The building is a post‑war mid-terrace block (circa 1967–75), so while the flat is presented well now, communal areas and long-term maintenance should be considered when budgeting.
This flat suits someone seeking an affordable, low-effort home with long lease security and modest running costs. It also offers straightforward rental potential for investors wanting a centrally located, easily managed property.
