Refurbished and ready to move into, this ground-floor one-bedroom apartment offers straightforward living for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The layout includes a well-proportioned double bedroom, a generous sitting/dining room and a separate contemporary fitted kitchen with appliances — practical spaces that suit everyday living and rental demand.
The building sits on an established residential road within easy walking distance of Tolworth station and Broadway, making commutes and local amenities convenient. The long lease (circa 159 years) and no onward chain simplify purchase mechanics. Communal areas and gardens are well maintained, and the property benefits from double glazing and modern finishes throughout following a recent refurbishment.
Notable running costs and practical points to weigh: heating is via electric storage heaters, which can mean higher energy bills compared with gas central heating. The advised service charge is around £2,100 per annum (including water rates and building insurance). Parking is residents’ permit only and unallocated on a first-come, first-served basis, which may be limiting if you need a guaranteed space. The local crime rate is reported as above average; consider this when assessing suitability and insurance.
Overall, this apartment presents a low-hassle purchase with good local transport links, a long lease and contemporary presentation — a sensible step onto the housing ladder or a straightforward addition to a rental portfolio, provided you account for service charges, heating type and parking arrangements.
