This two-bedroom apartment on Cross Street offers modern, open-plan living with a balcony and allocated off-street parking — a practical city-base for a first-time buyer or investor. The master bedroom includes an en suite and both bedrooms are double-sized, giving flexible space for a home office or renters. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit remote working and letting.
The kitchen comes with integrated appliances and the lounge opens onto a balcony, providing useful outside space in a compact urban setting. The property benefits from a contemporary finish and wood-effect flooring throughout, so little immediate cosmetic work is needed.
Important practical points: the flat is leasehold, with an average service charge of £2,020 and a community heating system. The wider area is classed as a deprived, high-crime neighbourhood and sits in a cosmopolitan student/private-renting zone — factors that affect resale and rental demand and should be considered alongside the price.
For buyers seeking a well-presented, low-upkeep apartment close to transport links, Gunwharf and the ferry, this is a convenient, compact option. Those needing quieter, low-crime streets or freehold tenure should note the area's profile and the leasehold/service-charge commitments before viewing.
