Ideal starter home with long lease and no onward chain.
Long lease: 167 years remaining
A compact, modern second-floor apartment offering straightforward, move-in ready living in central Wallington. The flat’s long lease (167 years) and no onward chain make purchase processes simpler for a first-time buyer. A 15 ft reception room and a similarly sized bedroom provide generous proportions for a one-bedroom apartment, while a contemporary bathroom and practical kitchen suit everyday needs.
The location is a clear selling point: immediate access to Wallington train station and the town’s shops, cafes and services supports a car-free lifestyle and strong local amenities. The property totals approximately 536 sq ft, with communal entrance halls and a secure, low-maintenance exterior of brick and balconies.
Be aware of the costs and context. The annual service charge is approximately £1,596 and the flat is leasehold; buyers should confirm any additional communal obligations. Local crime statistics are higher than average for the area, so prospective buyers should satisfy themselves on security measures and insurance costs. There is no flood risk and broadband and mobile signals are strong.
Overall this is a practical city-edge starter home for someone who prioritises transport links, a long lease and a ready-to-live-in flat. It suits a buyer wanting convenience and straightforward maintenance rather than large outdoor space or extensive renovation potential.
