Two-bedroom riverside flat with garage and long lease — ideal for renovators or investors.
Riverside ground-floor apartment with direct river towpath access
This ground-floor riverside apartment offers comfortable two-bedroom living with direct access to the River Thames towpath and well-kept communal gardens. The large reception room and mid-century style living area provide bright, usable space for everyday family life or entertaining. A garage adds secure parking and storage — a valuable rarity for riverside flats.
The property requires some renovation and modernisation, which is reflected in the asking price and presents clear scope to add value. Practical running costs are known: service charge approximately £1,900 pa and ground rent £220 pa, with a very long lease (circa 938–939 years) and Council Tax band D (£2,413 pa). Flood risk is medium; buyers should review insurance and local flood mitigation measures.
For investors, light updating could achieve a competitive rental income (estimated around £1,500 pcm) and a projected yield of roughly 6.4% per annum. For owner-occupiers the location — close to Staines town centre, the railway station and good schools — suits families and professionals seeking convenient commuter links to London and Heathrow. The building dates from the mid-20th century and retains period character alongside contemporary bathroom fittings.
Overall, the apartment is best suited to buyers comfortable undertaking cosmetic upgrading and those who value riverside access, long lease security and on-site garage parking. Important practical considerations include the renovation requirement, medium flood risk, and the ongoing service charge.
