The building’s modern construction (circa 1996–2002) and double glazing suggest reasonable sound and thermal performance, though exact glazing age is unknown.
Important cost and servicing facts are straightforward. The apartment is leasehold with 100 years remaining, an annual service charge of £5,800 and ground rent of £500. Heating is electric room heaters rather than a communal gas system, which may mean higher running costs and reduced central heating control. Council tax sits at Band E.
