A bright, well-presented second-floor flat offering low-maintenance living in a modern Brickfield Road development. The open-plan living area, double bedroom and recent construction standards make it move-in ready for a single occupant or couple. The long lease (987 years) and EPC B are practical ownership strengths.
Practical running costs should be factored in: an annual service charge of £2,340 and ground rent of £285. The apartment is compact at about 477 sq ft, so it suits those wanting efficient city-suburban living rather than large family space. Transport links are a clear draw — Colliers Wood Underground and Phipps Bridge tram are walkable, supporting commuting needs.
The building offers resident parking and secure communal storage, useful for everyday convenience. Be aware the immediate neighbourhood records above-average crime and higher local deprivation; budget for standard security and keep commutes and local services under consideration when deciding this location.
Overall, the property is a practical, low-upkeep option for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a modern, well-specified one-bedroom near good public transport. The long lease and tidy finish reduce early capital expenditure, while service charges and local area factors are realistic negatives to balance against the convenience and condition.
