A bright second-floor apartment in a modern block, offered with no onward chain and immediate move-in potential. The living area opens to a balcony with canal views and a fitted kitchen, creating a comfortable, low-maintenance city base. The double bedroom includes built-in wardrobes and the bathroom is a well-presented three-piece suite.
Practical details suit a first-time buyer: double glazing, lift access, and an EPC rating of C. The property is electrically heated throughout using room heaters and is sold leasehold with 106 years remaining. Council tax is very cheap, and there is no flooding risk.
Be aware of ongoing costs and local context. Service charge averages £2,133 per year and ground rent is £500 annually. The wider area records very high crime levels and the neighbourhood includes cosmopolitan student communities, which may affect rental demand or quiet enjoyment.
This apartment is ideal for someone seeking a convenient, central starter home or a straightforward investment close to Lancaster station and city amenities. An internal viewing is recommended to assess size and finish personally.
