Top-floor two-bedroom apartment, approx. 722 sq ft
A bright top-floor two-bedroom apartment in Green Gables, Four Oaks, offered with a long extended lease until 2198. The flat provides comfortable, well-proportioned living space (approx. 722 sq ft) with a separate garage in a nearby block and newly installed double glazing (Dec 2024).
The layout suits a first-time buyer or someone downsizing: entrance hall, lounge with fireplace, two bedrooms, kitchen and a bathroom. The property is well placed for local buses, commuter routes and strong local schools, including nearby grammar options.
The flat requires modernisation throughout — cosmetic updating and kitchen/bathroom refurbishment are needed. The building dates from the late 1960s/1970s and cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so buyers should budget for potential energy-efficiency improvements. Leasehold tenure applies (173 years remaining) with a service charge of £875 per half year (£1,750pa) and Band B council tax.
This is a solid value proposition for buyers willing to invest modestly to modernise: long lease, garage, low crime area and fast broadband make it practical for occupation or long-term rental.
