Own front door, ground-floor flat in detached period building
A compact, well-presented ground-floor one-bed in a detached period building on Hurstbourne Road. The flat benefits from its own front door, high ceilings and three tall front windows that bring generous afternoon light into the living space. Recent works include a modern fitted kitchen, refurbished bathroom and replacement UPVC double glazing with shutters installed in 2022.
Practical day-to-day features include mains gas central heating, FTTP broadband (excellent for a home office), and a very long lease (961 years). The property is offered as a share of freehold with a low annual service charge of £391 for insurance and additional works carried out as-and-when by the owners.
Buyers should note the flat is small (approximately 377 sq ft) and suited to a single occupant, couple or buy-to-let investor rather than a family. There is no private off-street parking (on-street parking only) and the EPC is rated D. The surrounding area offers good transport links, nearby parks and local amenities, but local area deprivation indicators are higher than average.
Overall this is a tidy, move-in ready period conversion that offers long-lease security, modern services and strong broadband, best suited to a first-time buyer or investor seeking a compact central-SE23 home with low running costs and minimal immediate maintenance required.
