This ground-floor one-bedroom cottage flat offers a compact, all-on-the-level layout suited to a first-time buyer or someone downsizing. The accommodation includes a spacious lounge, fitted kitchen, double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and a shower room — practical living without stairs. A small private front garden and a partly slabbed rear garden add outdoor space that is low maintenance.
The flat benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and sits in a quiet cul-de-sac within the established Summerston estate. Local shops, schools, parkland and regular bus and rail links make daily life convenient, with motorway access nearby for longer journeys. The property’s 475 sq ft footprint keeps running costs and upkeep straightforward.
Notable points to consider: the surrounding area is classified as very deprived, which can affect local services and long-term capital growth. Tenure is not specified and should be confirmed before offer. The compact size limits storage and entertaining space — this is a starter or single-person home rather than a family dwelling. A closing date is set, so prospective buyers should plan their timeline accordingly.
Overall, this modern cottage flat presents an affordable entry onto the market with sensible running costs and easy access to amenities. It suits buyers seeking a low-maintenance home or an affordable city-base, provided they are comfortable with the area’s socioeconomic profile and confirm tenure details.
