A bright first-floor one-bedroom maisonette with its own front door and allocated parking, presented as an accessible entry into Bishopstoke. The kitchen was replaced in 2023 and the lounge at the rear is private and not overlooked, making the layout practical for daily living or rental use. Loft storage adds useful space in a compact home.
This property suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking low-maintenance outdoor space and straightforward access to local schools, buses and amenities. The area is very affluent with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, supporting modern working-from-home needs.
Important practical points: the flat is leasehold with 170 years remaining, a service charge of £932 and an annual ground rent of £1,000 (notably high). The overall footprint is small (431 sq ft) so buyers should expect compact rooms and limited storage beyond the loft. There is no forward chain, which can speed completion for a motivated purchaser.
Overall this maisonette offers immediate move-in convenience thanks to the recent kitchen upgrade and neutral presentation, but buyers should weigh the long-term costs of the lease arrangement and the compact living space against its attractive location and parking provision.
