This smartly presented one-bedroom apartment on Upper Hale Road offers an accessible first step onto the property ladder in a pleasant Farnham neighbourhood. The open-plan living/kitchen feels bright and airy, aided by a Velux in the bedroom and good natural light, while allocated off-street parking and loft space add practical convenience. The building is modern (built 2003–2006) and benefits from double glazing and mains gas central heating; the EPC is a respectable C (77).
Practical points are straightforward: the flat is leasehold with 167 years remaining and no ground rent currently payable. Service charges are approximately £1,400 per year, which is notable given the apartment’s compact footprint of around 420 sq ft. Council Tax Band B keeps ongoing local charges relatively low.
This property will suit a first-time buyer or investor looking for a well-presented, low-maintenance home near Farnham Park and good local schools. Its compact size and annual service charge should be weighed against the long lease, allocated parking and modern fixtures. Legal verification of lease and charges is recommended prior to exchange.
