Set in the Grade II-listed Abel’s Mill, this recently renovated two-bedroom penthouse blends industrial character with contemporary convenience. The open-plan living, dining and kitchen area is ideal for entertaining, while smart heating and lighting add day-to-day ease. The principal bedroom benefits from large iron-framed windows and panoramic city views.
Practical features include lift access, secure gated parking and long leasehold tenure (approx. 978 years). An estimated rental value of £950 PCM and a chain-free sale make this attractive to first-time buyers and investors seeking immediate occupancy or rental income.
Buyers should note material considerations: the building’s listed status may restrict alterations and could complicate permissions or maintenance. Service charges average around £2,700 per year; the area records higher crime levels and is classified as a deprived, student-oriented neighbourhood. There is a medium flood risk and the original solid brick construction likely has limited insulation.
This penthouse suits someone wanting period character—exposed brickwork, timber beams and high windows—combined with modern finishes. It’s a good prospect for a hands-off investor or a purchaser prepared to accept central urban living compromises in exchange for distinctive space and strong transport and amenity links.
