This second-floor two-bedroom apartment in Kingfisher Court offers modern riverside living with practical long-lease security. The flat features two bathrooms (one en suite), two balconies with river views, and allocated covered parking — a straightforward, low-maintenance home or rental unit. The building has lift access and a secure communal entrance.
The accommodation is double-glazed and heated by electric storage heaters; main fuel is electricity rather than gas. The kitchen is open-plan and compact, suited to modern living but not generous in workspace. Service charge is notable at £2,546.07 per annum and should be factored into running costs despite a peppercorn ground rent and an exceptionally long lease (c. 975 years remaining).
The property is offered chain free and comes with a public notice of an existing offer. The surrounding area is classified as deprived with higher-than-average crime rates, and the neighbourhood profile indicates many private renting newcomers — factors that may affect long-term resale or family suitability. Broadband and mobile signals are strong and local schools have Good Ofsted ratings, which could appeal to investors targeting assured rental demand.
Overall, this apartment will suit investors seeking a centrally located rental with river views and secure parking, or buyers wanting a low-fuss home with long lease security. Be aware of the service charge level, electric heating, and local area challenges when deciding to view or offer.
