Summary - Flat 5, 133, York Road, WOKING GU22 7XR
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free two-bed flat near Woking station — parking and long lease, ideal first-time buy.
Chain free two-bedroom upper flat, approx. 667 sq ft
This chain-free two-bedroom upper flat sits in a handsome Tudor Revival semi with period timber framing, set within easy walking distance of Woking town centre and the mainline station. At around 667 sq ft the layout is sensible and well presented, offering straightforward, low-maintenance living with on-site off-street parking — a rare convenience so close to transport and shops.
The apartment is offered with a long lease (approx. 117 years), a modest ground rent (£80) and a below-average service charge (£648), making it suitable for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors looking for good running costs. The area scores highly for local amenities, schools and broadband, and there is no flood risk; the neighbourhood is affluent with very low crime levels.
Be aware of a few material points: the property is heated by electric storage heaters rather than gas central heating, which can affect running costs and comfort. Part of the accommodation is an attic conversion with a low/sloped ceiling and smaller window — fine for occasional use but restrictive as a full-height bedroom. The building’s timber-frame construction dates from the early 20th century and, while attractive, should be inspected for maintenance needs typical of period homes.
Overall this flat offers good value for a practical urban base or rental: convenient location, secure parking and predictable charges, balanced against the heating type and the compact attic room. Viewings will suit buyers prioritising location and low-moving complexity over a fully modern heating system or large-room proportions.
