Chain-free first-floor apartment with canal outlook and allocated parking.
First-floor two-bedroom apartment with canal views
Quietly positioned on the first floor with elevated views across the Kennet & Avon Canal, this two-bedroom apartment is a low-maintenance home with strong starter-home and rental appeal. The large reception room with a Juliet balcony provides space for seating and dining, while windows capture the canal and countryside outlooks that make this block desirable for walkers and commuters alike.
The accommodation is practical: fitted kitchen, two good-sized bedrooms and a bathroom with shower over bath. The flat is double glazed and benefits from allocated off-street parking (two spaces) plus a small garden, making it convenient for everyday living and attractive to tenants. Chain-free sale speeds up moving or investment completion.
Important practical points are straightforward. Heating is via electric storage heaters, and mains services are connected. The property is leasehold (long lease: approx. 975 years remaining) with a service charge around £1,200 per year; you own a share (1/6) of the freehold. EPC rating C and low flood risk are positives, but electric heating can be costlier than gas alternatives.
This apartment suits first-time buyers seeking an affordable, well-located home or investors wanting a ready-to-let property in a low-crime, affluent area with good broadband and easy access to town amenities and canal-side leisure. Overall, it’s a practical, move-in-ready option with clear running-costs and service-charge considerations to factor into offers.
