This two-double-bedroom first-floor maisonette offers private access and a secluded south-facing rear garden — rare for a flat. The accommodation is compact (approximately 581 sq ft) but arranged traditionally with a bright living room, fitted kitchen and a modern bathroom. The principal bedroom has fitted wardrobes and the property faces playing fields to the rear for pleasant views and light.
Practical benefits include a long 98-year lease, no service charge and a modest ground rent of £200. It sits close to Furze Platt station, local schools (including an Ofsted-rated Outstanding primary), shops and open National Trust land, making it convenient for commuters, families and first-time buyers.
Buyers should note the apartment is in a 1950s semi-detached block that shows signs of exterior maintenance need; the building likely lacks wall insulation and the glazing install date is unknown. No major flooding risk, low crime and fast broadband are positives, but purchasers are advised to arrange a survey and to expect additional leasehold administration fees (e.g., packs).
