A three-bedroom first-floor maisonette positioned in the heart of Lightwater village, ideal for first-time buyers seeking proximity to shops, schools and local transport links. The layout offers a reception room, kitchen, family bathroom and three bedrooms across a compact 763 sq ft — straightforward space with practical circulation and loft access for extra storage.
The property comes with a long lease (approximately 150 years remaining) and off-street parking, set in a very low-crime, affluent neighbourhood with well-regarded local and secondary schools nearby. Constructed mid-20th century, the building benefits from double glazing (installation date unknown) and cavity walls but is likely to need insulation improvements.
Heating is by electric storage heaters; this keeps the installation simple but may result in higher running costs and limits central heating options without investment. The flat presents clear refurbishment potential — upgrading insulation, heating and kitchen/bathroom fixtures could improve comfort, EPC and resale value.
This is a compact, centrally located maisonette that suits buyers who prioritise location and long lease security and who are prepared to invest in modernisation to reduce running costs and maximise space efficiency.
