Chain‑free modern one‑bedroom flat with private patio, close to shops and transport.
Chain free one‑bedroom apartment in town‑centre location
This purpose‑built one‑bedroom apartment sits in the heart of Addlestone town centre and is offered chain free, making it a straightforward buy for first‑time purchasers or buy‑to‑let investors. The open‑plan living area flows to a private patio, giving useful outdoor space in an otherwise urban setting. Built in a modern low‑rise brick block, the flat offers contemporary finishes and practical built‑in storage throughout.
Practical details that matter: the lease runs for around 115 years from 2017, and the small annual ground rent is £249. Heating is provided via a community scheme rather than an individual boiler, which can simplify maintenance but may limit personal control over running costs. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow; check connectivity options if working from home is essential.
Location is the apartment’s strong point — shops, restaurants, a cinema and transport links are all within easy walking distance. On the downside, local crime levels are higher than average, so consider security measures and local crime data. The property’s roughly 544 sq ft footprint and modest private patio make it a compact, convenient city‑centre home rather than a large family house.
Overall this flat will suit someone seeking a low‑maintenance, centrally located home or an investor targeting town‑centre rentals. Be clear-eyed about the broadband limitations, community heating arrangement, and local crime profile when viewing and budgeting.
