Vendor comments:
" I bought this flat to move out of my parents home, living on my own for the first time and it was the perfect step onto the property ladder. It's perfectly positioned and near Queens Road, Victoria Park and a short walk into the city centre and train station. The first thing I remember seeing when I saw the apartment was the garden and that will be the thing I miss most about living in the flat, especially in the summer. An extra benefit is because we act as our own management company and there is only five of us that live here, any maintenance matters that need addressing get done promptly. Each director takes pride in its appearance and cares about the building so it's often presented in excellent condition. "
