High ceilings, decorative features and a private entrance create a welcoming living space ideal for professionals, couples or small families who want city-centre convenience.

The accommodation includes three bedrooms, a lounge, fitted kitchen and a single shower room — practical living in a central location.
Buyers should note the apartment is leasehold with 125 years remaining, a service charge (approx. £1,920 pa) and ground rent (approx. £340 pa). Listed status means any alterations will be subject to restrictions and may complicate structural or cosmetic changes despite the recent renovation.
Other practical points: the building is of solid brick construction (likely no cavity insulation), broadband speeds are average, and local crime statistics are high. These factors matter for long-term running costs and comfort but are balanced by the property’s size, presentation and proximity to amenities and schools.
