Compact, chain-free one-bedroom flat close to Guildford station and town amenities.
Chain free ground-floor one-bedroom flat
A compact one-bedroom ground-floor apartment in Rossiter Lodge, a mid-century block a short walk from Guildford town centre. The layout is traditional with a double bedroom, separate kitchen and a good-sized reception room that benefits from large windows and plenty of natural light. Communal grounds and off-street parking add practical outdoor space and convenience.
This leasehold flat is offered chain free and has 138 years remaining, making it straightforward to buy. The building has double glazing installed after 2002 and low local crime in a very affluent area with excellent broadband and mobile signal — attractive for commuters and investors alike. Guildford station offers fast frequent trains to London Waterloo (around 38 minutes), and road links to the A3 and M25 are nearby.
Buyers should note the property is small (approximately 433 sq ft) and uses electric storage heaters rather than gas central heating, which can mean higher running costs. The walls are assumed to be cavity with no insulation appended, so retrofit insulation or other energy improvements may be beneficial and will improve comfort and bills. Ground rent is modest at £125 per year.
Overall this is a practical, low-maintenance opportunity for a first-time buyer, downsizer or investor seeking a town-centre rental; the flat is ready to occupy but offers sensible scope for cosmetic updating and energy-efficiency upgrades to add value.
