The property looks to be in good condition from the marketing photos and the apartment block itself benefits from lift access – always useful for carrying the weekly shopping ! In addition, there is a an underground parking space, a balcony and the property is offered with no chain. Other similar apartments are being offered mostly at slightly higher prices, although the vendors here would presumably like to get as close to £230 000 as they could.

As we’ve said before, flats at Pembroke Park are in an excellent location for access to Three Bridges mainline station (fast trains to London & the South Coast), Manor Royal and Gatwick Airport.

Properties like the apartment featured here attract couples as well as professional sharers. It is therefore good to know that the main family bathroom has a shower over the bath, with tiling up to the ceiling in the “bath area”.

In terms of rent, these apartments are now commanding between £1000 and £1100 pcm. Taking the best and worse case scenarios in terms of purchase price paid and rent achieved, you get a potential range of gross rental yields between 5.2% & 6.3%. Pretty healthy indeed.
