Important cost and tenure facts are plain: the flat is leasehold with 233 years remaining, a high annual service charge (£6,983) and a comparatively expensive ground rent (£530). Council tax sits above average. The private garden is small-to-average and paved, so maintenance is low but outdoor space is limited compared with larger houses.
