Approx 679 sq ft; average internal size for a two-bedroom flat
Electric storage heaters — higher running costs; possible upgrade needed

This first-floor two-bedroom apartment on Blakelands Avenue offers a practical, well-located starter home with a long lease and rare private garage. The open-plan lounge/dining room and galley kitchen make everyday living straightforward, while two double bedrooms provide comfortable sleeping space. A private ground-floor storage cupboard and communal garden extend usable space beyond the flat itself.
Practical considerations are clear: the building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and uses electric storage heating, so buyers should expect typical post‑war construction and some updating or modernisation may be beneficial. The property is average in internal size (about 679 sq ft) and has a service charge around £1,500 per year (circa £125 pcm), which covers communal maintenance.
Location is a definite selling point — close to Leamington Spa town centre, reputable local schools, good public transport links, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband. The long lease (around 150 years) and included garage make mortgage lending straightforward and add practical value for car owners.
Overall, this flat will suit first-time buyers seeking an affordable, well-positioned home with scope to personalise, or investors looking for a low-management rental in a central town setting. Be mindful of heating type and the likely need for cosmetic or energy-efficiency improvements when budgeting.
