Set within a handsome Victorian tenement on a quiet Newington street, this bright first-floor flat offers a practical and characterful starter home. High ceilings, stripped wooden floors and large sash-and-case windows give the living spaces a roomy, airy feel; the living/dining room includes a fireplace and room for a dining table. Two double bedrooms suit a couple or flat-share, while the modern kitchen and contemporary shower room reduce immediate renovation needs.
Practical extras include gas central heating, double glazing, integrated kitchen appliances and a C-rated EPC. Residents also benefit from a southwest-facing shared rear garden — an above-average external amenity for a city flat — and zoned permit on-street parking. The building has a secure door-entry and well-maintained communal stair.
Important points to note: the flat is modestly sized at around 614 sq ft, so storage and circulation are compact compared with larger family homes. The garden is communal rather than private and parking is on-street by permit only. Broadband speeds are average and the broader area is classified as very deprived, which may affect resale or rental yields for some buyers.
Overall, this property will suit first-time buyers or commuter-professionals seeking a centrally located, low-maintenance flat with period character and outdoor space. There is scope to personalise small areas (for example the separate WC) to increase comfort and future value.
