Set in the Northern Quarter on Church Street, this modern two-bedroom apartment offers compact city-centre living with a balcony and integrated kitchen. At about 590 sq ft, the layout is economical: hallway with storage, open-plan living area with fitted kitchen, two bedrooms (one with en-suite) and a main bathroom. The flat sits on the 2nd floor and benefits from large windows and good natural light.
Practical positives include a very long lease (c. 979 years), double glazing, EPC B and low local crime. The location is a key draw — immediate access to cafés, bars, restaurants, shops and public transport, making it suitable for first-time buyers, city commuters or investor buyers targeting short-term lets or city renters.
Buyers should note material running costs: quarterly service charge of £505.98 plus a reserve fund contribution of £135.36, and an annual ground rent of £250. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than a central gas system, and broadband speeds are average — factors to consider if you value low utility bills or high-speed connectivity. The apartment’s overall size is small; expect space-conscious living and limited storage.
This property is a straightforward, low-maintenance modern apartment in a lively central neighbourhood. It will suit buyers prioritising location and lease security over generous internal floor area; renovation scope is limited but the flat presents an immediate move-in or lettable opportunity.
