The development sits in an area recorded with very high crime levels, which may concern some buyers despite the on-site house manager and secure entry system. The apartment is ideal for someone seeking a low-maintenance, centrally located retirement home or a buy-to-let aimed at older tenants, but buyers should review lease terms and communal charges before committing.
