2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Chain-free starter with private garden and low running costs.
Ground-floor two-bedroom apartment, about 818 sq ft
This two-bedroom, ground-floor apartment offers practical space and a private garden in Newport, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking an affordable starter home. The layout includes a generous lounge with patio doors, a well-sized kitchen, two rear bedrooms and a porch linking directly to the tidy rear garden and useful outdoor storage sheds. At about 818 sq ft the apartment feels larger than many comparable flats.
Important ownership details are straightforward: leasehold with 125 years remaining, low ground rent (£10) and a below-average annual service charge (£249). The property is chain-free and benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC rating of C. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are excellent and the location has easy M4 access for commuters.
Buyers should note the building is of non-standard (concrete) construction which can restrict mortgage options with some lenders. The immediate area scores as very deprived, though crime is low and local amenities, schools and green spaces are nearby. The apartment dates from the 1930–1949 period and may suit purchasers prepared to update fixtures and finishes to their taste.
Overall this is a practical, affordable entry-level purchase with immediate outside space and reasonable running costs. It will suit first-time buyers or investors comfortable with leasehold ownership and potential lender limits due to construction type.
