This converted warehouse apartment pairs industrial character with practical family space. The principal living area is an impressive open-plan room with very high vaulted ceilings and large skylights that flood the home with natural light — ideal for relaxed family living and informal entertaining. The integrated kitchen sits at the heart of the space, making daily routines and socialising easy.
There are two double bedrooms that provide good furniture and storage flexibility, and a modern bathroom. Residents benefit from an allocated space in a gated car park and access to a communal garden, useful for occasional outdoor time without private maintenance. The flat’s location is highly convenient: a short walk to the mainline station, local shops and well-regarded primary and secondary schools.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold with 117 years remaining, an annual service charge of around £1,500 and ground rent of £400. Heating is by electric room heaters, which may result in higher running costs than gas central heating. Council tax is above average for the area. Overall this apartment will suit families or professionals looking for a characterful, low-external-maintenance home close to transport links, rather than buyers seeking a low-cost, low-running-charge property.
