A charming ground-floor period flat converted from the original barracks, offering character features and modern conveniences. The apartment has two double bedrooms, including an en-suite to the principal, an airy living room with large windows, and an allocated off-street parking space. Its position on the Village development brings direct access to onsite amenities such as a gym, doctors, vets and a soft-play centre — useful for family life or someone seeking convenience.
The property is chain free with a share of freehold and an exceptionally long lease of 973 years, providing long-term security. At about 853 sq ft the accommodation is an average-sized layout with high ceilings and solid brick construction that gives strong character, though the walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation. Heating is by mains-gas boiler and radiators; glazing is double but install date is unknown. The EPC rating is D.
Practical factors to note: the service charge averages £2,835 per year and the wider area records higher crime levels, which may influence some buyers. The building dates from 1900–1929 and, while well-presented, could benefit from energy-efficiency upgrades or cosmetic updating to reflect modern tastes. This home will suit downsizers or buyers seeking a characterful apartment with convenient on-site facilities and long lease security.
