Local area flagged as very deprived — affects local services/resale
A well-presented two-bedroom flat on the third floor of a modern brick development, offering a calm outlook over woodland and a nearby burn. The sitting room has full-height doors forming a Juliet balcony; rooms are neutrally finished and the principal bedroom includes a built-in wardrobe. The fitted kitchen comes with essential appliances (dishwasher, gas hob, electric oven, washing machine, fridge/freezer) and the bathroom is straightforward and functional.
Practical features include gas central heating, double glazing, an allocated off-street parking space and secure entry-phone access to a maintained communal hall. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, making the flat suitable for home working or tenants who need reliable connectivity. The flat totals about 657 sq ft, is freehold and has an EPC rating of B and Council Tax Band D.
Running costs and access considerations: the building is factored with an average service charge of approximately £1,200 per year (around £100/month). The flat is reached via communal stairs to the third floor, so it may be less suitable for those with limited mobility. The wider area is described as an established farming community and prospering countryside life, but local area data notes a high level of deprivation which may affect local services and resale/rental demand.
This property suits a first-time buyer seeking a move-in-ready home or an investor after a ready-to-rent flat close to road links. It offers low-maintenance communal grounds, a peaceful outlook and practical internal layout, balanced against service charges and third-floor access.
