Condition: generally good condition, broken shower reported but not fixed

Evidence considered

Tenant submitted evidence: yes. Landlord submitted evidence: yes.

Tribunal's reasoning

The Tribunal considered comparables and noted that the kitchen appeared modern with fair-sized rooms. The broken shower was not deemed significant enough to warrant a rent reduction, nor did off-street parking significantly impact market rental values. The new rent takes effect from 27 February 2026 due to undue hardship for the tenant if it were earlier.
