Perfect starter home near station with modern open-plan living and private outdoor space.
Share of freehold with 999-year lease
Light, well-laid-out accommodation on Wastdale Road offers two bedrooms, an open-plan living/kitchen and a private garden. The 999-year share of freehold provides long-term tenure security and the flat benefits from modern finishes: wood floors, a fitted kitchen and double glazing.
This home suits someone starting out who wants straightforward commuting — the train station is within walking distance and mobile and broadband connectivity are strong. The footprint is modest (around 44.96m2 / 484 sq ft) so the layout works best for a couple or small household; storage and living space are limited compared with larger homes.
Buyers should note practical issues: the building is solid-brick without assumed wall insulation, the double glazing was installed before 2002 and may not be as efficient as newer units, and the local area records above-average crime with some indicators of deprivation. Council tax costs are low, and broadband and mobile signals are excellent.
Overall this is a competitively priced, well-presented starter flat with garden access and long lease security. It will appeal to a first-time buyer or investor who prioritises location, connectivity and low immediate holding costs but accepts the modest size and potential upgrade needs.
