This top-floor two-bedroom apartment offers a compact, bright home close to Monton Village’s shops, bars and restaurants. The open-plan living, dining and kitchen area opens onto a small balcony, while skylight windows bring additional natural light into both bedrooms.
Practical features include gated resident parking, a very long lease (778 years) and fast broadband/strong mobile signal—useful for working from home or renting. At 487 sqft the flat is best suited to first-time buyers seeking an affordable entry into the area or investors targeting local demand.
Buyers should note the property’s limitations: the overall floor area is small, heating is by electric room heaters (no central boiler), and there is an average service charge of £1,500 plus ground rent of £155. The surrounding area is classified as very deprived, which affects long‑term neighbourhood profile despite low local crime and good nearby schools.
Overall this is an economical, low-commitment purchase with clear short-term appeal for someone wanting a city-edge base near Monton Village. The apartment requires little structural work but expect higher running costs from electric heating and ongoing service charges.
