This recently constructed (2021) one-bedroom first-floor apartment offers a turn-key finish and practical open-plan living across approximately 473 sq ft. The double-sized bedroom and well-appointed family bathroom make it comfortable for a single occupant or couple. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern working-from-home needs.
Transport and local amenities are strong selling points: Rye House and St Margarets stations are within comfortable walking distance for regular commutes, and the local town centre, shops and several well-rated schools are all nearby. The building’s relatively new construction and low maintenance feel give buyers immediate move-in convenience.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with around 121 years remaining. Annual outgoings are moderate: service charge approximately £1,500 and ground rent about £200. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, which may affect running costs compared with gas-heated homes. Recorded local crime levels are above average.
Overall this flat suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-effort, modern apartment with good transport links. It delivers practical space, modern finishes and rental potential, but factor in leasehold charges and electric heating when assessing long-term costs.
