A practical ground-floor two-bedroom flat offering a compact 51 sqm (552 sq ft) plan and an allocated off-street parking space. The long lease (961 years) and proximity to public transport make this a straightforward entry-level purchase or buy-to-let. Interiors are neutrally decorated but generally dated, so cosmetic updating will increase comfort and rental appeal.
Key positives include double glazing (pre-2002), a bright living/dining room, and easy access to local amenities and schools. Heating is by electric room heaters and the property is powered by electricity rather than a communal gas system; this keeps service arrangements simple but may mean higher running costs. Broadband is average and mobile signal is excellent.
Practical costs to note: an average service charge around £1,490 and affordable council tax. The building was constructed in the early 1990s and cavity walls are assumed insulated. There is no flood risk recorded, but local crime levels are above average — buyers should factor this into location decisions and insurance costs.
Overall, this flat suits first-time buyers wanting an affordable, well-located starter home or investors seeking a let-ready unit after light refurbishment. Expect to refresh kitchen units, flooring and fixtures to maximise value or rental return.
