Low-price starter or rent-ready investment with manageable service costs.
Chain free ground-floor two-bedroom flat, approx 560 sq ft
A compact two-bedroom ground-floor flat in a quiet cul-de-sac, offered chain free and with strong entry-level affordability. The apartment includes a spacious lounge, fitted kitchen, shower room and generous built-in storage, arranged across about 560 sq ft — suitable for a first-time purchase or buy-to-let at the current asking price. The lease dates from 1989 with around 89 years remaining; service charge is £250 per year and ground rent £10 per year.
Practical benefits include very low flood risk, good mobile and broadband coverage, nearby shops, bus links and local primary schools rated Good. The property is economical to run (Council Tax Band A) and the vendor suggests achievable rental income around £650 pcm, making it attractive for investors seeking immediate letting potential.
Buyers should note the wider area shows signs of deprivation and higher crime levels; the building exterior and paved forecourt require some TLC. The flat is presented in basic condition and will benefit from cosmetic updating. Lease length is adequate for mortgage approval but buyers should confirm lender requirements and review the lease details with their solicitor.
This is a pragmatic purchase: low purchase price, limited running costs and clear rental prospects, balanced by a need for light refurbishment and careful consideration of the neighbourhood. Suitable buyers will be those prioritising affordability, rental return or a first home they can personalise over time.
