This vacant, chain‑free top-floor apartment has been newly refurbished and is ready to move into. The accommodation includes two bedrooms, a modern kitchen and bathroom, new UPVC windows, updated flooring and fresh décor — all recently installed and little used. A single garage is included, offering useful off-street parking or storage.
The property sits in a small mid‑century block with a communal garden and a practical layout across approximately 800 sq ft. With 146 years remaining on the lease and a modest council tax band, the home suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-hassle purchase; viewings are typically available at short notice.
Practical considerations: heating is by electric room heaters rather than a gas central system, which may raise running costs compared with gas-heated homes. The current annual service charge is £1,100 (valid to 04/25) and the building is managed by the residents’ RTM company. The surrounding area shows some deprivation indicators despite convenient local shops and good schools nearby.
Overall this is a smart, compact apartment offering immediate occupancy and straightforward ownership for buyers prioritising convenience, a long lease and minimal renovation work. Those seeking lower ongoing energy costs or a more affluent neighbourhood should weigh the electric heating and local area profile when deciding to view.
