Chain-free flat with private garage and driveway, ideal for first-time buyers.
Chain-free one-bedroom flat with long 153-year lease
Set on Balmoral Road, this chain-free one-bedroom flat offers a neat, move-in-ready home with surprisingly useful parking for the area. The open 19'2 living room and fitted kitchen give a comfortable living space for a first-time buyer or investor, while the integral garage and private driveway are rare local assets. The apartment benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and a long 153-year lease.
Accommodation is straightforward and well presented: a double bedroom, full bathroom with shower-over-bath, and a kitchen with built-in hob and oven plus room for appliances. Practical extras include an internal brick-built storage shed and a communal carpeted hallway. Broadband is fast and mobile signal excellent, making this suitable for remote working or streaming.
Important practicals and drawbacks: the property is leasehold (153 years remaining) with annual maintenance of around £1,000 and buildings insurance of £200. The overall floor area is small (approximately 363 sq ft), so space is limited compared with larger flats. Buyers should factor in the service charge and the modest size when assessing affordability and living requirements.
Local amenities are strong: a mix of shops, takeaways, supermarkets and good primary and secondary schools nearby, including two schools ranked in the top 10% locally. The setting suits a buyer who values low-hassle parking, quick connectivity and a compact home close to local facilities.
