A Note from The Homeowner

I have been living in this flat since 2013 and find it particularly comfortable and conveniently located.
The flat itself has a quiet outlook, shared space suitable for children, and is easy to maintain with relatively low outgoings. It is great for getting into town via the regular bus service on the road outside and is handy for the University where I work. My family enjoys the accessible green areas of the University campus, including the nearby Harris Gardens, which are perfect for walks and picnics. I have a growing family with two young children and am now moving to a larger home, sacrificing some of the convenience of this location.

Agent's Perspective
This apartment stands out for its impressive size and thoughtful design. The contemporary kitchen, with its ample cupboard space and generous layout, immediately caught my eye. But stepping into the lounge is where the magic truly happens the lush, green view is simply stunning. It's private, peaceful, and the southwest-facing aspect fills the space with beautiful natural light.

The property also boasts a 139-year lease, so there's no need to worry about extensions, and the convenient garage adds valuable storage space. Its location is a dream for those needing easy access to town via regular bus routes, and it offers a safe and comfortable environment for families with children. Add in the reasonable service charge and ground rent, and this flat offers a fantastic balance of practicality and comfort.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on January 11, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
