This modern one-bedroom apartment offers low-maintenance city-centre living with useful extras like a private garage and balcony. The open-plan living area and fitted kitchen suit a buyer wanting a compact, contemporary home or an investor seeking a rental-ready unit in a lively central location.
Practical details are straightforward: 571 sq ft, EPC B, council tax band C, and 102 years remaining on the lease. The building benefits from double glazing and lift access; however, heating is by electric room heaters rather than a communal gas system, which may mean higher running costs in winter.
Note the financial commitments: an average annual service charge of £1,859 and a ground rent of £250. The property sits in a cosmopolitan, predominantly student neighbourhood with very high local crime levels — factors that affect both lifestyle and lettability and should be weighed against the central location and transport links.
For first-time buyers or investors wanting a compact city base with immediate usability, this apartment presents solid convenience and potential. For downsizers seeking quiet residential streets or buyers prioritising low crime and lower running costs, the location and electric heating are important considerations.
