A stylish 2005-built ground floor flat offering practical, ready-to-live-in accommodation close to Hinckley town centre. The open-plan living, dining and fitted kitchen plus two double bedrooms make this a straightforward first home or buy-to-let opportunity. The apartment is well presented with white panel doors, feature wall panelling, refitted shower room and UPVC double glazing.
Practical benefits include an allocated off-street parking space, a long lease (about 135 years remaining) and an EPC rating of C. The block has a security entry system, wired smoke alarm and modern finishes throughout, reducing immediate maintenance work. Service charge and ground rent are payable and cover communal upkeep.
Notable running-cost points are the Economy 7 electric storage heating and electric hot water system, which can be costlier than gas; consider this when budgeting. Annual service charge is around £1,350 and ground rent is £240 per year. The property is in a part of town classed as having higher crime and local deprivation; buyers should consider this when weighing location and resale or rental prospects.
Overall this compact, well-located flat suits a first-time buyer seeking low-maintenance move-in readiness or an investor wanting a central, easily managed rental; weigh the communal costs and electric heating against the long lease and central convenience.
