This first-floor, two-double-bedroom apartment in Willowbrook Walk offers a straightforward buy-to-let prospect in Norton Heights. The master bedroom has an en suite, and the living space combines an open-plan lounge with a separate kitchen, creating practical tenant-friendly living. Allocated off-street parking and a modern brick exterior add everyday convenience.
Financially the property is set up for investors: it’s chain-free, has 134 years remaining on the lease and an estimated rental range of £750–£800 pcm (around a 9% gross yield at the asking price). Annual costs include a service charge of £1,978 and ground rent of £140; council tax is modest (Band B), but factor these into net yield calculations.
Built around 2003–2006 with double glazing and cavity walls, the apartment appears well-presented and low intervention. Heating is electric via a boiler and radiators, so running costs could be higher than gas alternatives — relevant if offering inclusive bills. Local amenities, good transport links and several nearby schools broaden tenant appeal.
A notable caution: the area records above-average crime, which may influence tenant demand and insurance costs. Overall, the flat is a practical rental option with long lease security and simple management needs; viewing is recommended to assess condition and confirm potential returns.
