This unusually large one-bedroom duplex occupies around 1,000 sq ft and combines generous living space with rare outdoor amenity for a flat: a private garden, off-road parking and a sizeable garage. The first-floor open-plan living room/kitchen diner measures over 10m by 5.6m, giving flexible space for cooking, dining and entertaining. The ground floor contains the bedroom and bathroom, offering a logical split-level layout.
Practical details are straightforward: leasehold with approximately 146 years remaining and a below-average annual service charge of £960. Heating is by mains gas boiler to radiators, the property has double glazing (installation date unknown) and sits on brick-and-block construction from the 1980s era. There is no recent flooding risk recorded and council tax is described as cheap.
Notable constraints are factual and important for planning: the home is a single-bedroom property so is best suited to a single buyer or couple rather than a family, and broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow. As a 1980s-built dwelling, some buyers may want to refresh decor or update fittings, though the substantial open-plan space provides strong scope for improvement or reconfiguration.
Nearby amenities and schools are plentiful, including two Outstanding-rated primary schools, local shops, railway links and bus services — useful for first-time buyers seeking convenience and transport options. Overall, this duplex offers rare private outdoor space and parking for a flat, with clear practical information to weigh against single-bedroom limits and slow broadband.
