Leasehold with 78 years left — lenders may refuse mortgages

Close to Totnes high street, transport links and good primary schools
Set within a Victorian detached building close to Totnes town centre, this three-bedroom flat offers roomy, adaptable accommodation and a private garden — a rare find for a flat. The layout includes a reception room, fitted kitchen, three good-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom, making it suitable for first-time buyers, small families or buy-to-let investors seeking flexible space.
The location is a strong selling point: short walks to the high street, shops, cafes, schools and public transport, with fast broadband and low local crime. Nearby primary and secondary schools have good Ofsted ratings, and the town’s amenities and countryside walks are easily accessible.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the property is leasehold with 78 years remaining — this is low enough that some mortgage lenders may refuse a loan. The building is a pre-1900 granite construction with assumed no wall insulation, so buyers should expect energy-efficiency improvements and general maintenance or renovation work. There is only one bathroom for three bedrooms, which may be a consideration for families.
For someone prepared to manage lease considerations and carry out updating, the flat presents clear potential: a private garden, sizeable rooms, and a central Totnes position. Those seeking mortgage advice or considering a purchase as an investment should check lender criteria and factor refurbishment costs into their budget.
