Compact period home with countryside access and rental potential.
Chain-free one-bedroom maisonette in central Capel village
Set in the heart of Capel village, this one-bedroom maisonette pairs period charm with central convenience. Exposed Tudor beams and timber details give real character, while a modern bathroom and fitted kitchen provide day-to-day practicality. The property is compact at about 342 sq ft and offers easy, low-cost living in a very affluent rural area.
Chain-free and with around 120 years remaining on the lease, the flat suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The vendor suggests a potential rental income of about £950 pcm. The location is a major asset: village shops, pub, post office, school and regular bus links are all close by, with Dorking and Horsham accessible via the A24.
Practical points to note: heating is electric via room heaters, the walls are original solid brick and likely lack modern insulation, and double-glazing installation date is unknown. The apartment is small and will suit buyers comfortable with compact living or those willing to update and optimise the space. Council tax is described as very cheap, and there is no flood risk.
For someone seeking a characterful, low-maintenance pied-à-terre or a rental purchase in a prosperous countryside setting, this maisonette offers immediate occupation and clear potential. Buyers should budget for potential insulation or heating upgrades to improve comfort and running costs.
