This ground-floor, two-bedroom flat on Montgomery Road is offered chain-free and with a 990-year lease from completion, making it an accessible purchase for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The property is mortgageable and holds a valid PRC certificate. Practical benefits include single-level living, enclosed front and rear lawns and low council tax (Band A).
The interior requires full modernisation: dated finishes, electric night storage heaters and vinyl flooring remain, and the property is described as needing renovation throughout. The building is a repaired Cornish Unit (mid-20th century) with double glazing installed post-2002; the energy rating is D. Buyers should budget for updating heating, internal finishes and potential wall insulation where cavity walls are assumed uninsulated.
Financially, running costs are modest: an annual service charge of £251.04 and very low council tax. There is no allocated parking, but unrestricted on-street parking is readily available nearby. The flat is connected to mains services and lies within walking distance of a post office and convenience store, with St Austell and wider amenities a short drive away.
This property suits someone seeking an affordable entry into the market or a renovation project with rental potential (approximate rental income advertised c. £695pcm). Viewings are recommended to assess scope and costs; arrange a survey to verify condition, damp, electrics and insulation before purchase.
