1 bed 1 bath Flat
Renovated ground-floor home with huge basement—ideal for first buyers or investors.
Private gated entrance and low-maintenance front and rear gardens
Westerly-facing garden providing afternoon/evening sun
Large 30ft basement across full footprint, with power and lighting
Full rewire and full tanking completed in 2021; 30-year warranty
One double bedroom; bright bay-fronted lounge with restored floorboards
Leasehold with 999 years; buyer becomes freeholder on completion
Area has higher crime and local deprivation; factor into decisions
Older stone walls likely lack modern insulation; heating is gas boiler
This ground-floor Victorian-style one-bedroom garden flat is presented as a move-in ready first home or buy-to-let. The owners completed a full electrical rewire and full tanking in 2021 (30-year transferable warranty), and restored original floorboards and period features give the apartment character while keeping maintenance low.
Practical downsides are clear and factual: the property sits in an area with higher crime and relative deprivation, and some external walls are older stone construction likely without modern insulation. The flat is leasehold (999 years remaining) and you would become the freeholder on completion; any future structural works would be shared 50/50 with the adjoining owner.
For buyers who value location and scope for added value, the flat delivers. It has a private gated entrance, a westerly private garden, fast broadband, good access to the train station, shops and commuter links, and a substantial 30ft basement with power and lighting — useful for storage, a workshop, or potential conversion subject to consents. Council tax is very low, helping running costs for first-time buyers or an investor seeking good yield potential.
Summary: a newly renovated, characterful, ground-floor flat in a convenient town location with significant basement space and recent major works completed. Buyers should factor in local area challenges and the shared approach to structural repairs when assessing longer-term costs.
