Refurbished city-centre flat with balcony and parking, ready to move into..
Two double bedrooms, both with balcony access where applicable
Refitted kitchen with appliances and modern bathroom
Off-street parking included; no onward chain
828 sq ft; traditional inner-city layout, newly renovated
Leasehold with 86 years remaining — lease considerations apply
Located in a multicultural, inner-city area with higher crime levels
Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband; good commuter links
Building age 1980s; communal areas and concrete balconies require upkeep
This newly renovated two-double-bedroom apartment sits in a Riverside town-centre development and is ready to move into with no onward chain. The sitting room and principal bedroom open onto a balcony, adding outdoor space and riverside views typical of the development. The refitted kitchen includes appliances and the bathroom has been updated; heating is by mains-gas boiler with radiators.
Practical benefits include off-street parking, double glazing, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for commuters and home workers. At 828 sq ft, the layout is a traditional inner-city plan with a comfortable living room and separate rooms for sleeping and storage.
Important considerations: the property is leasehold with 86 years remaining and will be sold subject to the lease terms. The building dates from the 1980s with 1970s/80s-style communal areas and external concrete balconies, and the wider neighbourhood is an inner-city, multicultural student area with higher-than-average crime and local deprivation indicators. Buyers should factor potential service charges, future maintenance of communal fabric, and the lease length into affordability and mortgage checks.
For a first-time buyer or investor seeking a refurbished, move-in-ready flat in the town centre, this apartment offers immediate occupancy and rental potential close to transport, shops and highly regarded local schools, while requiring awareness of leasehold and area-related issues.
