This well-proportioned two-bedroom flat occupies a second-floor position in a mid‑20th century block in popular Bassett. The layout centres on a generous open-plan lounge/dining room that opens onto a private balcony with leafy communal garden views — a low-maintenance space for morning coffee or small-scale entertaining. The adjoining modern fitted kitchen includes integrated appliances and a dishwasher, making day-to-day living straightforward.
Practical benefits include a garage en bloc and an external storage shed, useful for bikes, tools or bulk storage. Heating is by mains‑gas boiler and radiators, and double glazing was installed post‑2002. Broadband and mobile coverage are strong, and local transport links, the university, hospital and parkland are all close by, which supports convenience for commuting, study or hospital staff.
The flat is offered chain free on a long lease (around 940 years) but is a leasehold property with an annual service charge (average c. £1,440; figures should be confirmed by a buyer’s solicitor). The accommodation has a single bathroom plus separate WC and is an average internal size (circa 737 sq ft), so it suits couples, first-time buyers or buy‑to‑let investors seeking a low‑maintenance home with good external amenities.
Buyers should note the block’s mid‑century build and assumed cavity wall construction with no added insulation; buyers wishing to improve thermal performance may wish to budget for upgrades. All tenure, service charge and ground rent details must be verified by a solicitor prior to exchange.
