SLADE Property Collective are delighted to present this beautifully proportioned first-floor apartment, occupying an enviable position on the outer perimeter of Bantock Park. Constructed during the 1960s, this attractive apartment offers spacious accommodation throughout, with an abundance of natural light flooding every principal room thanks to its large windows and well-balanced layout.
Perfectly suited to first-time buyers, professional couples, those looking to downsize, or investors, the apartment combines generous living space with a highly sought-after location, where peaceful parkland walks and excellent local amenities are right on the doorstep.
Access is gained via a secure communal entrance, leading to a private entrance porch with a recently installed fire door, creating a welcoming entrance before stepping into the main accommodation.
The apartment opens into a superb open-plan living and dining room, an impressively sized reception space offering plenty of room for both comfortable seating and formal dining. Large picture windows allow natural daylight to pour into the room, creating a wonderfully bright and airy feel throughout the day.
Positioned just off the living area is the fitted kitchen, comprising a range of fitted base units with complementary work surfaces, vinyl flooring, generous preparation space and a large window overlooking the surrounding greenery. The room is further complemented by a double panel radiator.
An inner hallway provides access to the remainder of the accommodation.
Situated to the rear of the apartment, Bedroom One is a generous double bedroom benefiting from a recessed fitted wardrobe, offering excellent built-in storage whilst retaining ample space for additional bedroom furniture.
Bedroom Two is another spacious double bedroom positioned to the front of the apartment, making it equally suitable as a guest bedroom, home office or second principal bedroom.
Completing the accommodation is the modern shower room, fitted with a large shower enclosure incorporating waterproof wall panelling within the wet areas and a mixer shower. The suite further comprises a contemporary square wash hand basin with vanity storage beneath and a low-level WC. An airing cupboard protrudes into the room, whilst a further built-in cupboard houses the Worcester Bosch combination boiler, providing practical additional storage.
Offering spacious accommodation, excellent natural light and an exceptional setting overlooking one of Wolverhampton's most treasured green spaces, this is a superb apartment ready for its next owner to enjoy.
The property benefits from residents' off-road parking, with a number of parking bays available on a first-come, first-served basis. Whilst the spaces are not individually allocated to each apartment, they are intended for residents' use, providing convenient off-road parking subject to availability.
Lease Information
The property is leasehold and is currently in the process of having the lease formally extended by the current owner, providing reassurance for the incoming purchaser.
There are currently approximately 34 years remaining on the existing lease; however, this will be superseded once the lease extension has been completed. Full details of the extended lease will be made available to prospective purchasers during the conveyancing process.
The current service charge is £1,132.36 per annum, based on the latest payment. Buyers should note this is currently under review and is due to increase by approximately 8% from October.
The development is professionally managed by Parsons Choice, and a particularly attractive feature is that all residents own a share of the freehold, providing a collective interest in the ownership and long-term management of the building.
Lifestyle & Location
Occupying a wonderful position on the edge of Bantock Park, this apartment enjoys one of the most desirable settings in the west of Wolverhampton. Bantock Park extends to almost 40 acres and offers beautifully maintained gardens, open green spaces, mature woodland walks, a café, children's play area and the historic Bantock House Museum. The nearby Smestow Valley Nature Reserve provides additional walking and cycling routes, making this an ideal location for those who appreciate the outdoors.
Everyday amenities are easily accessible within Finchfield, Compton and Tettenhall Village, where residents will find independent cafés, supermarkets, convenience stores, healthcare facilities and a variety of restaurants and public houses.
Excellent transport links are available via the nearby A449 Penn Road, providing straightforward access to Wolverhampton City Centre, the M54, M6 and the wider Midlands motorway network. Regular bus services operate along Penn Road, whilst Wolverhampton Railway Station offers direct services to Birmingham, Shrewsbury, Stafford, Manchester and London.
