A distinctive two-double-bedroom first-floor flat set within the Grade II listed Barton Hall, a converted Victorian complex dating from 1885. The apartment benefits from generous 10' ceilings, period features retained during a 2015 restoration and an allocated off-street parking space. Communal landscaped gardens and proximity to town-centre amenities make this a convenient, low-traffic base for those seeking a central location.
Practicalities are straightforward: the property is leasehold with 120 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £2,603 and a £250 ground rent. Heating is electric via replacement radiators/room heaters, which suits sporadic occupancy but may increase running costs compared with gas. There is no flood risk and broadband speeds are fast.
This apartment will suit downsizers or retirees looking for a manageable, characterful home within easy walking distance of shops, GP surgery and local leisure facilities. Buyers should note the Grade II listing may restrict alterations and could complicate permissions or maintenance. The area records higher-than-average crime levels, so prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves on security arrangements.
Overall this is a characterful, well-located duplex for someone prioritising period charm and town-centre convenience over low-running-cost modern heating or extensive remodelling freedom.
