Light-filled, two double bedroom first-floor conversion ideal for commuters and growing families. The flat runs front-to-back, offering a separate reception room, modern kitchen, bathroom and loft access. Double glazing and gas central heating provide everyday comfort, and a shared rear garden plus an off-street parking space add practical appeal.
The property comes to market chain-free and benefits from a share of freehold arrangement, but the lease has c.52 years remaining. This is a material point: some mortgage lenders may refuse to lend or will require reduced terms, and additional leasehold administration or premium costs may apply. Buyers should obtain lender confirmation and factor in possible lease-extension costs.
Set on Brighton Road, the location is well-served by buses, nearby train stations, shops, bars, restaurants and a strong selection of schools, making it a convenient home for commuters and families. The building dates from the early 1900s and retains period character externally; internally the kitchen has been updated to a modern finish.
Practical considerations: the building’s solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated and a survey is recommended to check insulation and services. The accommodation is an average-sized 763 sq ft and suits buyers wanting a ready-to-live-in conversion with scope to improve energy performance and extend the lease for long-term security.
