Bright, low-maintenance apartment ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
Top-floor one-bedroom with private balcony and good natural light
This top-floor one-bedroom apartment in Arla Place offers a low-maintenance, contemporary home for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The open-plan living and dining area is bright and flows onto a private balcony, creating a pleasant spot for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The kitchen is fitted with integrated appliances and clean, modern cabinetry; the bathroom is finished to a good specification and ready to use.
Practical strengths include allocated off-street parking, fast FTTP broadband, gas central heating, and a long remaining lease of 116 years. Energy performance is B and council tax is affordable (band C), both helpful for running costs. The location places shops, cafés and transport links within walking distance, suitable for commuters.
Notable considerations: the flat is compact at about 531 sq ft, so it best suits a single occupant, couple, or investor rather than a family needing lots of space. Annual service charge is approximately £1,920 and ground rent is £520 per year — the latter is comparatively high and should be noted when calculating ongoing costs. Local recorded crime levels are very high; prospective buyers should investigate safety measures and local conditions.
Overall this is a move-in-ready modern apartment with strong connectivity and low maintenance living. It represents a practical entry point to the market, but buyers should weigh the compact size, running charges and local safety profile against the convenience and specification on offer.
