I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and identified one round the corner in Deepcar I like with a park and transport links nearby, however it only has 52 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Deepcar suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?

Should you require a home loan the shortness of the lease may be an issue. Discount the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least 2 years you can ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.
