This first-floor purpose-built apartment in the New Avenue development offers a straightforward, low-hassle start for a first-time buyer. At about 606 sq ft, the open-plan living/kitchen area and generous double bedroom with fitted wardrobes provide comfortable, practical living. The property is chain-free, has allocated off-street parking and its own private terrace — useful extras in a busy suburban setting.
Constructed five years ago, the building still benefits from an NHBC guarantee (around five years remaining) and a long 255-year lease, reducing near-term ownership risk. The kitchen is well equipped with integrated appliances and the bathroom is modern and fully tiled. Residents also benefit from communal gardens, a playground, good mobile signal and fast broadband — conveniences for everyday life and working from home.
Ownership carries predictable running costs: a service charge of about £1,450 pa and a nominal ground rent (approx. £10). Heating is via a community scheme; check specifics if you prefer private control. EPC band B suggests reasonable energy performance, and local schools and Southgate High Street amenities are within easy reach, supporting family visits and resale appeal.
The flat is suitable for buyers seeking a low-maintenance starter home or a buy-to-let investment; the area is popular with commuters and young families. Be aware this is a leasehold flat, so read the lease terms for any future plans, and note the NHBC cover is limited in remaining years.
