A bright one-bedroom apartment on the fourth floor of the modern Aviation Drive development, offering an open-plan living room and fitted kitchen with a large window that brings plentiful natural light. The well-sized double bedroom, modern bathroom and handy utility/storage cupboard make efficient use of the 414 sq ft layout.
This property suits a first-time buyer seeking a compact, low-maintenance home near good local amenities and strong transport links. Built 2007–2011, the building benefits from double glazing, lift access and fast broadband, while the apartment’s neutral décor and sensible ceiling height help it feel welcoming and practical.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat with 84 years remaining — a material issue that will require lease extension planning and cost. The annual service charge is substantial at £3,602 and heating is via electric storage heaters, which can mean higher running costs compared with gas. The sale is via auction under conditional terms, so purchasers must allow for auction timescales and specific legal conditions.
Overall, this is a well-presented, modern apartment offering straightforward city living and value at the listed price, provided buyers understand the lease length, service charge and auction sale implications.
