Set on the fourth floor of a 1960s/70s block, this chain-free two double bedroom flat offers bright, practical living with standout southerly views over the 1st Central County Ground and distant sea glimpses. The large lounge/diner opens onto a long balcony, creating an inviting social space for entertaining or morning coffee in the sun. The kitchen is fitted and includes integrated fridge/freezer and appliance space. Built-in wardrobes in both bedrooms add sensible storage.
Practical features include an allocated off-street parking space, basement storage cupboard, lift access, and good communal access with disabled entry. The flat has double glazing (post-2002), mains gas central heating with a Baxi boiler, and fast broadband and mobile signal — useful for home working. Council Tax Band C and a long lease (127 years) make it suitable for both first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with an annual service charge of approximately £3,572 (collected £1,786 every six months). The balcony’s glass balustrade is due to be refurbished soon and the building’s 1960s/70s concrete construction gives a practical, rather than luxury, finish. There is one shower room only, which may be a consideration for families.
The location is lively and well connected: cosmopolitan neighbourhood character, nearby bus routes, shops, cafés and schools, and direct views of the cricket ground on your doorstep. Overall, this is an accessible, well-located flat offering straightforward, move-in-ready accommodation with clear potential for cosmetic updates to personalise the interior.
