This well-presented top-floor apartment in the popular Repton Park development offers sensible space and low running costs for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner opens onto a balcony and benefits from plenty of natural light, while two double bedrooms and a family bathroom provide straightforward, flexible accommodation.
Practical running costs are clear: an EPC B (81), mains gas boiler and radiators, allocated off-street parking plus visitor bays, and modest ground rent and service charge. The lease was granted in 2011 and approximately 111 years remain, making the tenure suitable for mortgage lenders and long-term ownership.
There are a few constraints to note. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow, which may affect home working. The property is leasehold with a service charge of around £1,250 pa and a ground rent figure listed; buyers should check the most recent service charge accounts and lease details. The apartment has one bathroom only, so families who need multiple bathrooms should consider this.
Overall, this apartment offers a turn-key option in a well-regarded, family-friendly area close to good schools and local amenities. It suits first-time buyers seeking manageable costs and modern finishes, or investors looking for a reliably lettable two-bedroom flat with parking and low immediate maintenance needs.
