Buyers should note material drawbacks: the flat is small (approx. 576 sq ft) and the lease has only 81 years remaining, which will require prompt attention and likely cost to extend. Service charges are around £86.36 pcm (£1,036.32 yearly). Crime in the area is above average, which some buyers may consider when comparing neighbourhoods.
Overall this is a functional, well-situated apartment offering low running costs and clear rental/first-home potential, provided prospective purchasers are comfortable managing a short lease and communal service charges.
