A large one-bedroom flat set within a landmark Victorian building, Tamar Flats offers generous rooms, high ceilings and period character ideal for a first-time buyer or investor. The property includes a dedicated courtyard parking space, a small overgrown garden area and a one-fifth share in the freehold, secured by a very long (999-year) lease.
The accommodation combines period features—large windows, high ceilings and a mid-century style sitting room with inset wood burner—with practical modern updates such as double glazing and a contemporary kitchen. The flat is chain-free and located a short walk from Launceston town centre, local shops and transport links, making it convenient for commuting and town amenities.
Important practical points: heating is electric (night storage heaters and an electric stove), the EPC is band D, broadband is very slow (ADSL/copper), and the area records above-average crime levels. The adjoining garage is part of the property but is difficult to access due to limited visibility. Annual service charge is £900 (including a £50 ground rent) and each flat contributes to insurance.
This flat will suit someone seeking character and space who is prepared to accept electric heating and limited broadband speeds, or an investor looking for a centrally located, chain-free purchase with parking and long lease security. There is potential to tidy or repurpose the small garden area and to update heating or connectivity if required.
