Set in the heart of Hornby, this ground-floor two-bedroom apartment combines Grade II-listed character with practical village living. A substantial sitting room with a fireplace and a long, fully fitted kitchen-diner give the apartment comfortable, usable rooms ideal for everyday life and low-maintenance living. Allocated parking directly to the front and easy access to local amenities add genuine convenience.
The apartment suits downsizers seeking a manageable, characterful home close to shops, a pub and regular bus links. Gas central heating, double glazing (fitted post-2002) and an EPC rating of C provide reasonable energy performance for a period property. The long lease (988 years) offers security commonly sought by leasehold buyers.
Important practical points: the building’s Grade II listing protects historic features but will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance; listed-status consent may be required for repairs or changes. The stone walls are original with no assumed insulation, so buyers should budget for potential upgrade works if improved thermal performance is desired. Overall, this is a village apartment that balances period charm, commuter links and low running complexity, best suited to purchasers comfortable with listed-building ownership.
