Summary - Flat 1, 109 Grovelands Road RG30 2PB
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Compact period home with parking and private outdoor spaces for buyers seeking city convenience.
Ground-floor two-bedroom apartment with two private courtyard gardens
Set within a converted early 20th-century lodge, this ground-floor two-bedroom apartment combines period character with contemporary fittings. The layout offers a living room with French doors to a private walled courtyard and a modern kitchen with integrated appliances — practical for everyday living and easy entertaining. Bedroom one benefits from an en-suite and its own courtyard access; the second bedroom is versatile for guests or a home office.
Practical positives include allocated residents’ parking for one car, two private courtyard gardens, double glazing and mains gas central heating. Service charge and ground rent are modest for a communal block, and the lease has circa 109 years remaining — suitable for mortgage lenders and long-term ownership.
Be upfront about location and maintenance: the property sits in an area of higher deprivation with above-average local crime statistics, so consider this if neighbourhood safety is a priority. The building’s original solid brick walls likely lack modern cavity insulation and the overall apartment is compact at about 589 sq ft, so heating/insulation improvements could be considered.
This home suits first-time buyers or investors looking for a characterful, low-maintenance city-base with private outdoor space and parking. It offers immediate move-in condition with clear scope for modest energy-efficiency upgrades or cosmetic personalisation.
