Bright, spacious and architecturally distinctive, this two-bedroom maisonette on Goldcrest Drive offers a sizeable, light-filled home ideal for a first purchase. The living room’s double-height vaulted ceiling and large windows create a striking sense of space, while the open-plan kitchen/diner and roof terrace add practical, sociable living areas. Two generous double bedrooms and a modern bathroom complete the apartment’s well-presented accommodation.
Practical benefits include a private entrance, integral garage with driveway parking, and a very long lease (approximately 990 years) with a share of freehold. These features reduce common long-lease risks and give secure parking — a notable advantage in this area. The property is presented in good decorative order with modern finishes such as engineered wood flooring and a fitted kitchen.
Buyers should be aware of the regular service charge (reported at £206.12 per month and currently contested; prospective purchasers must confirm with solicitors). External amenity is limited to a terrace rather than a substantial garden, and nearby properties sit relatively close. Council Tax is Band D. The wider area shows higher deprivation indices, which may affect long-term resale dynamics.
Overall this maisonette will suit first-time buyers seeking roomy, low-maintenance accommodation with secure parking and strong natural light. It offers clear value drivers for those prioritising space, long lease security and an easy-to-manage urban home, while requiring buyers to consider service charge details and limited private garden space.
