A compact two-bedroom ground-floor apartment with open-plan living and canal views, offered as a practical first home or buy-to-let. The living/kitchen area is bright and efficiently laid out, with integrated appliances and room for living and dining. Both bedrooms are modest but usable, and the shower room is contemporary and functional.
Practical benefits include an allocated off-street parking space and a very long lease (998 years). The block has secure entry with key fob and keypad intercom, and the apartment’s footprint of 518 sq ft keeps running costs predictable for a small household. Service charges average £1,046 per year.
Notable drawbacks are the apartment’s overall small size and single shower room, which may feel tight for some buyers. The property is in a deprived area of the city, so consider location-related factors such as local services and resale demand. There is no private garden and limited external space beyond canal-side views.
This property suits a practical first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-maintenance, modern city apartment with parking and long lease security. Viewings will show how the efficient layout and canal aspect deliver everyday convenience despite the compact footprint.
