This bright two-bedroom maisonette blends newly refreshed interiors with practical outside space, making it a straightforward move-in for first-time buyers. The lounge is spacious with French windows that open onto a private rear garden, and an attached summerhouse/office with lockable storage gives flexible work-from-home or hobby space. Off-street parking for multiple cars is a genuine plus in this location.
The flat has been newly renovated inside: modern spotlights, wood-style flooring and a contemporary finish throughout mean little immediate internal work is required. The long lease (121 years) and affordable council tax make the tenure sensible for buyers wanting security without large running costs. Broadband and mobile signal are good, and local schools and train stations serve family and commuter needs.
Buyers should note the property sits in a mid-20th-century semi-detached building with a dated exterior. Images indicate possible roof damage and mould in places around the outside; the walls are solid brick with assumed no cavity insulation, which could mean higher heating costs unless upgraded. Double glazing is older (pre-2002) and may not meet current standards. These issues are mainly external/structural and worth a professional inspection and budgeting for any remedial work.
Overall, this is an attractive ready-to-live-in maisonette with garden, parking and useful outbuilding space, balanced by external maintenance items that provide scope for value-adding improvements. For a first-time buyer seeking immediate comfort and potential to personalise externally, it presents a practical and affordable prospect.
