Summary - APARTMENT 3, DERWENT HOUSE, GRENFELL GARDENS BB8 9PN
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Secure gated community with private parking and lockable basement storage.
Ground‑floor apartment with level access and generous 1,268 sq ft footprint
A spacious, well‑appointed two‑bedroom ground‑floor apartment in the converted Derwent House, part of the gated Grenfell Gardens development. The apartment offers a large open‑plan living/dining/kitchen with marble worktops and integrated Neff appliances, a separate utility, two fully tiled shower rooms (one en‑suite), and generous built‑in storage including a lockable basement store. Level access and multiple windows provide excellent natural light and easy arrival from the landscaped communal courtyard.
This property will suit a buyer looking to downsize without compromise: the accommodation feels more like a small house than a flat with 1,268 sq ft of flexible living space, two double bedrooms, and private underground plus overground parking accessed by electronic gates. The development is owner‑occupied only, creating a peaceful community and added security with video entry intercom and gated parking.
Important practical points are set out plainly. The apartment is leasehold (110 years remaining) and sold chain free. Heating is electric with a wet system boiler and radiators; the building’s cavity walls are assumed to have no added insulation. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow, and the development’s owner‑occupation rule means this is not suitable for buy‑to‑let investors.
Overall, this is an attractive, low‑maintenance home in a highly regarded Colne location close to amenities, transport links and countryside walks. It offers a rare combination of generous internal space, secure parking and a calm communal setting — ideal for someone seeking comfortable single‑level living near services and green spaces.
