Buyers should be aware of notable neighbourhood challenges. The location sits within an area recorded as very deprived and with a high local crime rate, which may affect resale prospects and day-to-day feel. The building’s walls are system-built with internal insulation and the property was constructed before 1900, so buyers may wish to check construction details, insurance and any future maintenance obligations.
Overall this is a compact, well-presented apartment with strong transport links and a long lease, suited to a buyer seeking a central, well-connected first home or a lettable investment, provided they are comfortable with the broader area characteristics.
