Summary - The Flat, Old Gunn Court, 1 North Street RH4 1DE
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact, renovated period flat walking distance to stations and shops.
Chain-free first-floor one-bedroom, approx. 407 sq ft
A compact, characterful one-bedroom apartment in the heart of Dorking, offered chain-free and recently refurbished. Set within a Grade II listed building, the flat blends exposed timber-frame character with a contemporary open-plan kitchen/living area and a modern shower room. At about 407 sq ft, it’s suited to a single occupant, a couple or a buy-to-let who wants central location and easy access to stations.
Practical points are clear: the property was fully restored in 2022 following a minor domestic fire and presents in good decorative order, with double glazing and vinyl wood-effect flooring throughout. Heating is by electric room heaters and the main fuel is electricity — useful for simplicity but likely to mean higher running costs than gas-heated homes. On-street parking and nearby permit car parks serve the location.
There are material legal and management details buyers must check. The listing status and historic fabric mean repairs or alterations can be restricted and potentially costly. Documents show 105 years remaining on a lease, a £100 annual ground rent and an annual building-insurance cost of £504; other notes mention a 25% contribution to communal maintenance. Tenure wording in the paperwork is inconsistent — instruct a solicitor to verify whether the title is freehold or leasehold and to confirm all ongoing charges.
In short, this is a tidy, centrally placed flat with period character and immediate availability. It will appeal to first-time buyers and investors who prioritise location and low-entry cost, provided they accept electric heating, a compact footprint and the extra considerations that come with a Grade II listed property.
