This ground-floor one-bedroom maisonette sits in the heart of East Grinstead, a short walk from the train station and town centre amenities. The property blends period character — a bay-windowed double bedroom and an open fireplace in the lounge — with practical town living and an allocated off-street parking space at the rear.
Internally the layout is compact but well-proportioned for the size (around 431 sq ft). The kitchen provides fitted units and appliance space and the bathroom is located off the rear. High ceilings and original bay windows bring natural light and a sense of space; the home is presented in tidy, traditional condition but would benefit from selective modernisation to maximise comfort and value.
Practical considerations: the flat is leasehold (about 149 years remaining) and being ground-floor it comes chain-free. There is a small rear garden/yard and an allocated parking bay. Some building fabric is typical of its 1930s-1940s construction — cavity walls likely without added insulation — so updating heating efficiency and insulation could be a future project. The surrounding neighbourhood is very affluent overall but local crime statistics are higher than average, which may matter to some buyers.
This maisonette suits a first-time buyer or downsizer seeking a central, characterful home with good transport links. Investors may also be attracted by town-centre location and strong rental demand, though any buyer should factor in modest upgrade works to modernise heating, insulation and decor to realise full potential.
