Set on the first floor of a mid-20th century block, this freehold two-bedroom flat offers substantial space and clear scope for personalisation. The large living room and well-proportioned bedrooms deliver comfortable day-to-day living, while big windows flood rooms with natural light. With an 807 sq ft footprint, the layout feels roomy compared with many flats of this age.
Cosmetic updating is required throughout, making this a suitable project for buyers who want to add value by modernising kitchens, bathrooms and finishes. Practical extras include a private external staircase with built-in storage, a garage for secure parking or storage, and well-kept communal gardens. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators; the property has double glazing though installation date is unknown.
This flat is offered chain-free and as a freehold, attractive to first-time buyers, downsizers and investors seeking refurbishment potential in an affluent, low-crime area. Service charges are modest at £953.01 per year; the vendor is clarifying rules on pets, lets and holiday use, so buyers should confirm permitted uses before purchase.
Bear in mind the property needs cosmetic work rather than major structural intervention as described, but buyers should still commission survey and checks on services, wiring and boiler condition. Schools, local amenities and fast broadband are nearby, and the setting suits those wanting a quieter, self-sufficient retirement neighbourhood or buyers seeking long-term rental prospects.
