Bright two-bedroom village apartment with garden and long lease ideal for starter buyers.
Private ground‑floor entrance and enclosed rear garden
Set on the ground floor of a semi-detached post‑war building in Ilchester, this well‑presented two‑bedroom maisonette offers practical, bright living for a first‑time buyer or someone looking to downsize. The accommodation includes two double bedrooms, a light lounge/diner, fitted kitchen and a single bathroom. A private entrance and fully enclosed rear garden add useful outside space not always found with apartments.
The property is comfortable and economical to run: double glazing was installed after 2002, central heating is mains‑gas with a wall‑mounted boiler, and council tax is described as very cheap. The 121‑year lease and nominal ground rent (£1) provide long lease security, though buyers should allow for standard leasehold costs and any additional fees for lease packs.
Located in a quiet village setting with good local amenities and schools nearby, this maisonette suits buyers seeking manageable space with outdoor privacy. The layout is traditional and largely ready to move into, but purchasers should commission a survey and be aware the bathroom uses an electric shower over the bath and the property dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s, so some modernisation could add value.
Overall this is a sensible, low‑maintenance home in a very affluent, low‑crime area — an attractive starter or downsizing option with scope for modest cosmetic updates.
