A compact ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in a quiet cul-de-sac on Mannock Way, suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The bay-front living/dining room brings good natural light and the layout is straightforward: entrance hall, two bedrooms, kitchen and bathroom. One allocated off-street parking space and communal grounds add practical convenience.
The building is modern (early 1990s) with double glazing and an intercom-secure entry. The long lease (153 years remaining) and affordable Council Tax Band C make this a low-hassle ownership option. Service charge is approximately £155.95 per month (£1,871.40 yearly); ground rent is to be confirmed.
Be clear on the specifics: heating is electric storage heaters rather than mains gas, and the internal space is modest at about 560 sq ft — adequate for a starter home or rental but limited for larger households. Communal grounds and plot are small. EPC about C.
Overall, this is a practical, well-located starter or investment buy: low local crime, good schools nearby, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Buyers should factor in ongoing service charges, potential heating costs, and the apartment’s compact footprint when deciding to view.
