Summary - The Parade Building Upper Fourth Street, Milton Keynes, MK9 MK9 1DP
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Bright, modern 2-bed apartment in Central Milton Keynes with excellent transport links.
Two double bedrooms with large side-aspect windows and neutral finishes
Set on the second floor of a modern mixed-use building in Central Milton Keynes, this well-presented two-bedroom apartment offers bright, contemporary living in a highly connected location. The open-plan kitchen and dining area is the social heart, featuring a large central island, integrated appliances and light wood flooring that creates a spacious, sociable feel. Two double bedrooms with large side-aspect windows provide calm sleeping spaces, and two shower rooms keep morning routines running smoothly.
Practical running costs include a service charge that covers gas and water via the building’s community heating scheme; there is no separate ground rent. The long lease (around 202 years remaining) gives security for buyers, and an EPC rating of C reflects reasonable energy performance. The property’s footprint of c. 807 sq ft suits couples, sharers or first-time buyers looking for a low-maintenance city base close to transport links.
Buyers should note a few material considerations: the service charge is above average, and heating is supplied through a communal scheme rather than individual boilers. The area is described as an inner-city, cosmopolitan neighbourhood with a very high local crime classification — prospective purchasers should weigh this against the convenience of being steps from CMK rail, major road routes and city amenities. Broadband speeds are average, and while the apartment is finished to a contemporary standard, anyone with exacting tech or connectivity needs should verify services.
Overall, this apartment is a straightforward, stylish option for someone prioritising central location and modern fittings over a private garden or suburban tranquillity. It presents a ready-to-move-into urban base with strong transport links and a long lease, but carries the ongoing cost and communal nature of its service arrangements.
