Set on the second floor of a handsome late-Victorian terrace, this one-bedroom flat sits directly beside Burgess Park and its tennis courts. The large reception room benefits from high ceilings and period windows that flood the space with natural light. The separate kitchen and double bedroom make for a comfortable layout for everyday living.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (960 years) and share of freehold, plus allocated garage parking — rare for central locations. Broadband and mobile signal are excellent, and local schools include several highly rated options within easy reach.
Buyers should note the area has higher crime levels and is relatively deprived; the property will suit someone who values proximity to green space and transport over a quiet suburban street. The building’s solid-brick Victorian construction likely needs internal modernisation and may not have cavity insulation. Service charge is approximately £1,200 per year.
This flat offers clear potential for a first-time buyer or investor seeking a well-located home with long-term ownership security and scope to add value through sympathetic updating.
