Two-bedroom ground-floor flat with garage — central Whitchurch, short lease to note.
Garage with up-and-over door and power point
Centrally located in Whitchurch, this ground-floor two-bedroom flat offers practical living with a garage and communal gardens. The lounge-diner and two double bedrooms provide comfortable space for a first-time buyer or someone downsizing. Engineered oak-style flooring and double glazing give a tidy, low-maintenance feel.
Buyers should note the lease length: approximately 45 years remaining. That short lease may restrict mortgage options and could require negotiation or a lease extension before lenders will approve. There are ongoing costs (service charge and ground rent) and potential additional fees for leasehold documentation.
The property is heated by electric storage heaters and relies on electricity as the main fuel, so running costs may be higher than gas-heated homes. The block was built in the 1967–75 period and likely has cavity walls without added insulation; buyers may wish to budget for energy-efficiency improvements.
Overall this flat suits a first-time buyer or downsizer seeking a centrally placed, low-upkeep home with a private garage. Investors should factor in lease length and possible lender restrictions; a survey and early mortgage advice are recommended before committing.
