This well-presented second-floor apartment offers practical, modern living with a balcony and allocated off-street parking. Built in 2014, the property benefits from double glazing, mains gas community heating and a bright open-plan kitchen/living room that opens onto a south-facing balcony. At about 776 sq ft it provides comfortable room sizes and easy access to local shops, transport links and good-rated schools.
The home is offered as shared ownership (45% share available at £123,750) or can be purchased outright at full market value. Monthly costs for a 45% share are outlined: rent £471.09 and service charge £208.42. Note the service charge (circa £2,496 pa) and an unusually high ground rent figure shown; buyers should verify exact costs and lease details with their solicitor before proceeding.
Practical considerations are clear: the lease length is quoted inconsistently in the paperwork (one figure shows 88 years remaining; another shows 2,088 years). This should be confirmed legally. The apartment is beautifully maintained and move-in ready, but purchasers must check the footnote on appliances and services as these are not guaranteed to be in working order.
Suited to first-time buyers or small families wanting affordable access to the area, the property combines low local crime, fast broadband and good transport links. For buyers seeking long-term investment, confirm all lease, rent and ground-rent terms carefully to understand ongoing costs.
