One-bedroom ground-floor flat with large conservatory and private garden..
Ground-floor one-bedroom flat with private rear garden
This ground-floor, one-bedroom flat combines practical living with a rare outdoor benefit: a private garden accessed from a large conservatory that brings abundant daylight into the home. The double bedroom and separate shower room suit a first-time buyer, downsizer or investor looking for a straightforward, single-level property close to transport links. Heating is by mains-gas boiler with radiators and double glazing fitted after 2002, which helps with running costs and comfort.
The layout includes a bright living room, a functional kitchen area and a conservatory that works well as a dining space, home office or second sitting area. Several nearby primary and secondary schools have Good Ofsted ratings, and local buses and cycling routes provide reasonable connectivity for commuting and everyday errands.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with an average annual service charge of around £1,300 and a ground rent of £10. The local area classification indicates high levels of deprivation and hampered neighbourhoods — practical considerations for resale and rental demand. The building dates from the 1950s–1960s and external elevations show post-war mid-century character; some external maintenance or cosmetic updating may be needed.
Overall, this flat offers a low-maintenance single-floor home with outdoor space and a versatile conservatory. It will appeal to cost-conscious first-time buyers or investors seeking a property with straightforward tenancy potential, provided they factor in service charges and the wider area's socioeconomic profile.
