Set on the second floor of a modern-traditional development in Newington, this large two-bedroom flat offers comfortable, move-in-ready living with unexpectedly generous floor area (914 sq ft) and two private balconies overlooking well-kept communal gardens. The dual-aspect lounge/dining room with gas fire, a fitted breakfast kitchen and two bathrooms give flexibility for home working, guests or sharers.
Practical running costs are straightforward: gas central heating, double glazing, and a below-average service charge of £150 per month (includes buildings insurance and communal maintenance). Off-street residents and visitor parking, shared bike store and access to private tennis courts add everyday convenience and leisure options without leaving the development.
Be clear on the costs: the property sits in Council Tax Band F, which is relatively expensive, and the wider area indicators show pockets of deprivation despite a local population of highly qualified professionals. The development is freehold, which is an uncommon advantage for a flat and may suit buyers seeking long-term security or investors.
This apartment will suit first-time buyers or professionals who want ready-made, spacious accommodation close to the city centre, good digital connectivity and outdoor space. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the room proportions, two balconies and peaceful communal grounds.
