Summary - OLD PUMPHOUSE FLAT 1 ARCHWAY PLACE DORKING RH4 1DR
2 bed 1 bath Ground Flat
Charming two‑bed conversion near Dorking town centre and rail links.
Share of freehold with very long lease (988 years)
Set within a converted 19th‑century pump house, this ground‑floor two‑bedroom apartment combines generous room proportions with striking period character. High ceilings in parts, exposed beams and sash-style windows give genuine charm while the living room’s electric fireplace creates a cosy focal point.
Practical benefits include an allocated off‑street parking space, double glazing, mains gas central heating and an open kitchen/dining area suitable for everyday living and entertaining. The property is offered chain free and comes with a very long lease (share of freehold, 988 years), making it straightforward for buyers concerned about lease length.
Buyers should be aware this is a Grade II listed building, which will limit alterations and can complicate certain works or consents. The long history and solid brick construction likely mean limited cavity insulation; buyers seeking high thermal performance should budget for heating and insulation improvements. There is a high local flood risk and the area records elevated crime levels — these are material factors for insurance and personal security considerations.
Overall this apartment will suit buyers who value character and central convenience—short walks to shops and stations—over turnkey modernisation. It presents a comfortable, well‑located home as‑seen, with scope to personalise within the constraints of listed status.
