This ground-floor one-bedroom converted apartment blends Victorian character with practical everyday living. The reception room’s large bay window and feature fireplace create a bright, welcoming space, while a clever mezzanine study off the bedroom adds useful flexibility for working from home or hobbies. The apartment is chain free and comes with a share of freehold and a long lease (112 years), offering ownership clarity uncommon at this price point.
Outdoor space is a genuine plus: extensive communal gardens with mature trees, seating areas and an allocated off-street parking space provide lifestyle and convenience in a central location. The property sits within a short walk of Redhill town centre and the train station, making it especially suitable for first-time buyers or commuters seeking a compact, characterful home with low maintenance grounds.
Buyers should note a few material points: the building shows some external wear and would benefit from modernisation in places; the solid brick walls likely lack insulation and double glazing was installed before 2002, so heating costs could be higher than a modern build. The area records higher crime levels, so prospective purchasers may wish to check local security measures. Service charges are currently £885 (below average) and council tax is described as affordable.
Overall this apartment offers strong value for buyers prioritising location, period features and outside space, while accepting modest updating and potential energy-efficiency improvements. The long lease, share of freehold and included appliances make it straightforward to move into or rent out with minimal immediate legal complexity.
