This chain-free ground-floor apartment offers a practical, low-maintenance first home or buy-to-let close to Ilkeston town centre. The layout includes two double bedrooms, a long dual-aspect living room and a well-equipped kitchen — all within a compact 462 sq ft footprint. Allocated off-street parking and visitor spaces add everyday convenience.
The building is modern (constructed 2003–2006) with double glazing and gas central heating via boiler and radiators, so running costs are straightforward and council tax is low. The flat’s position near shops, the mainline station and local amenities suits commuters and local workers.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property; lease details are being compiled and additional fees (lease packs, admin) may apply. The interior is serviceable but a little dated in places and would benefit from cosmetic updating to maximise resale value or rental income. The local area records higher-than-average crime levels, which may influence some buyers’ choices.
Overall this is a sensible, affordable entry-level flat or an uncomplicated investment opportunity for someone prepared to accept a smaller living area and handle the usual leasehold formalities.
