This first-floor one-bedroom flat offers an affordable entry into Coventry’s property market, with chain-free purchase and a price of £85,000. The layout is straightforward and efficient: a spacious living room, a large double bedroom and a recently refurbished bathroom. Two external storage rooms and a private garden are rare extras for a flat at this price and add practical value for everyday life.
The property benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and an average internal size of around 503 sq ft. The lease has about 93 years remaining, ground rent is nominal (£10) and the service charge (circa £800) is below average, which helps running costs. These features make the flat suitable for first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-entry rental asset.
Buyers should note some important local and property facts. The area shows higher-than-average crime levels and is classified as an area of deprivation, so purchasers should consider security and local amenity implications. The building dates from the 1950s–1960s and while the bathroom has been renovated, other parts of the flat are traditional in finish and may need updating over time. The double glazing install date is unknown.
Overall this is a sensible, budget-friendly option for someone prioritising location, outdoor space and low initial outlay. It will suit a buyer comfortable with a leasehold flat in an urban area who wants immediate occupation or a straightforward rental opportunity.
