This top-floor, two-bedroom penthouse in Brook House sits minutes from Derby city centre and offers an open-plan, light-filled living space with integrated kitchen appliances and vaulted ceilings. The apartment benefits from secure gated parking, lift access, and a very long lease (978 years), making it a straightforward purchase for a first-time buyer or investor seeking central, low-maintenance living.
Internally the home is presented with solid oak engineered flooring, modern fitted kitchen with granite worktops and integrated appliances, a sizeable principal bedroom with a dressing area, and a contemporary bathroom. The layout and skylights create a spacious feel unusual for city-centre flats, and the allocated parking adds practical value in a central location.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with a current service charge of around £1,968 per year (approx. £196.11 pcm) and no garden. The wider area is cosmopolitan with a strong student presence, which supports rental demand but can bring higher footfall and occasional noise. There is a medium flood risk in the area and local crime levels are above average, so buyers should consider insurance and security needs.
Overall this apartment suits someone wanting an immediately habitable, low-upkeep city base or an investor targeting central rentals. The long lease, gated parking and modern fixtures are clear strengths; assess the area’s character and running costs before committing.
