Summary - Flat 4, 12 London Road SN8 1PH
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Newly renovated two-bed investment with allocated parking and low council tax.
Top-floor penthouse with high vaulted ceilings and abundant natural light
Set on the top floor of a handsome Georgian building close to Marlborough High Street, this newly renovated two-bedroom apartment is offered with vacant possession. High vaulted ceilings, neutral decor and good natural light give the interior a bright, airy feel, and the layout includes a central living room, galley kitchen, bathroom and loft storage. The long lease (992 years) and allocated off-street parking make it straightforward for letting or owner-occupation.
Practical running considerations are clear: heating is by electric room heaters, windows are secondary glazed and walls are solid brick with no built-in insulation. Energy performance is modest (E) and there is a medium flood risk for the area. Service charge is £692 per year and council tax band A is very low, supporting manageable annual running costs for an investor or occupier.
This compact property (c.581 sq ft) suits buy-to-let investors, first-time buyers seeking a town-base, or downsizers wanting period character with low-maintenance grounds. The location places shops, cafes and schools within easy walking distance, with mainline rail links to London accessible by nearby stations. The combination of period character, recent redecoration and a lengthy lease provides immediate rental potential with limited upfront legal complexity.
Note the accommodation footprint is small and there is no private garden. Buyers seeking high thermal efficiency or gas central heating should expect to make changes if desired. The apartment’s town-centre position and allocated parking are attractive trade-offs for compact living and some limitations on outdoor/private space.
