Summary - DOWNS VIEW LODGE 9 OAKHILL ROAD SURBITON KT6 6EG
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Walkable commute, balcony and long lease for first-time buyers.
0.6 miles to Surbiton station and high street
Bright and well‑placed, this two‑bedroom second‑floor flat sits 0.6 miles from Surbiton station and the high street, making daily commutes and local amenities easily walkable. The spacious lounge/dining room opens onto a private balcony with views over mature trees and the block’s maintained communal gardens, creating a pleasant spot for morning coffee.
Practical features include a fitted kitchen, two double bedrooms with built‑in wardrobes and a bathroom with shower over bath. A lift serves the block and thoughtful built‑in storage helps maximise the apartment’s 713 sq ft footprint. The property is offered with an exceptionally long lease (around 940 years) and no identified flood risk — strong points for both first‑time buyers and buy‑to‑let investors.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat and the communal grounds are modest in size; parking is on‑street/nearby rather than allocated. The accommodation is a mid‑20th century modernist block with standard ceiling heights and an average overall room scale, so cosmetic updating may be desired to personalise the interior. Council tax is described as affordable and broadband/mobile connectivity are strong.
Overall, the flat suits someone looking for a convenient, well‑connected starter home or a rental purchase close to transport links and local schools. It offers clear lifestyle advantages — excellent location, long lease and outdoor space — balanced by the realities of communal grounds and a compact urban apartment layout.
