Set across two levels in a converted 1902 school building, this three-bedroom duplex blends generous scale with period character. The open-plan living space is a standout, with 4.5m ceilings, original parquet flooring and three large sash windows that flood the room with light. Two allocated off-street parking spaces and communal gardens add practical outside space for family life.
The layout works well for flexible family living: two double bedrooms on the ground floor, a further bedroom on the first floor and separate bathroom and shower facilities. The modern kitchen includes integrated appliances and a breakfast bar, and the apartment is offered with no onward chain. The 999-year lease (granted 2017) provides long-term security for buyers.
Buyers should note material running costs and retrofit needs. The property has electric room heaters and an EPC rating of G (20), and the original solid brick walls likely lack insulation—improvements will be needed to reduce energy bills. A service charge of about £1,500 a year covers building insurance and communal upkeep. The wider local area shows higher deprivation measures, though local schools and town-centre amenities are readily accessible.
