Light, practical and surprisingly spacious, this first-floor flat offers two double bedrooms, a sizeable lounge and a private rear garden — a rare find for first-time buyers. The layout includes useful loft storage and a garage accessed from the garden, giving more usable space than many flats of this type.
The long lease (138 years) and peppercorn ground rent make the tenure straightforward for a buyer seeking clarity and low ongoing fees. Gas central heating and UPVC double glazing are already in place, reducing immediate maintenance bills. The property is being sold with a complete onwards chain, which can speed up a move.
The garden is mainly low-maintenance artificial lawn with decking, though outdoor areas and some communal spaces show scope for improvement — ideal if you want to personalise and add value. The building is on a suburban residential road in a comfortable neighbourhood with nearby schools and local amenities suiting family life.
Be mindful this is a leasehold flat with maintenance handled on an 'as and when' basis; there may be periodic costs for shared upkeep. The ground rent is minimal, and overall the property represents a practical, well-located entry onto the housing ladder with clear potential to improve and personalise.
