Set on a tree-lined stretch of Beaufort Road, this two-bedroom flat offers a compact, well-located starter home with private garage and communal gardens. At 587 sq ft it’s a small apartment ideal for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let purchaser seeking straightforward refurbishment potential. The property sits within easy walking distance of Brooklands Metrolink and Sale town centre, and local schools are highly rated.
The accommodation is dated but serviceable: a light-filled lounge with bay window, two bedrooms, kitchen and family bathroom. The building is a three-storey, post-war brick block with maintained communal grounds. Practical positives include a very long lease (944 years), low ground rent (£15), mains gas central heating and an affordable council tax band.
Important transactional details: the property is offered by Modern Method of Auction. The successful bidder must pay a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.5% (minimum £6,600) and complete within a 56-day reservation period. A Buyer Information Pack is available for £349 and personal data will be shared with the auctioneer. These costs and timescales should be considered before bidding.
Known drawbacks are clear: the flat is small and will need cosmetic updating, broadband speeds are slow, and internal photo condition shows dated decor and wear. There is no private garden visible from the unit, and communal parking/garaging and courtyard access are shared. Buyers should inspect carefully and, if using a mortgage, consult lenders prior to bidding.
