Rarely available, this two bedroom first floor apartment is on the market to buy a 55% share. This means that getting onto the property ladder is actually affordable! The owner has kept the property beautifully throughout meaning that you wont need to spend much when moving in.

The communal entrance has recently been re-carpetted which gives a lovely first impression, stairs lead up to the first floor where you find the apartment. Upon entering into the hallway you have access to all rooms including, two double bedrooms, bathroom, storage cupboard and open plan lounge/kitchen/diner. The apartment is heated by electric storage heaters but being on the first floor and modern construction the vendor says she doesnt need to use them all, even in the winter!

Externally the communal gardens make for a space to enjoy in the sunshine or to entertain family, there is also parking available to residents.

Interestingly there is zero rent to pay on the remaining 45% share so there is just the service charge of £2770.74 annually. There are 109 years left on the Lease.
