The home, in the agent’s words
Read the full agent description
THE PROPERTY:
Defined by its private entrance, generous natural light and rare private gardens, this two-bedroom maisonette offers a very practical and easy to live in home.
Large windows draw daylight through the accommodation, creating bright, welcoming interiors that reflect the clean architectural lines of the period. The entrance hall leads to a comfortable living room with open outlook to the front, while the kitchen is arranged for everyday practicality with an integrated 'fridge freezer, 4 ring gas hob and oven beneath a concealed hood. The washing machine will be included in the sale. The two well-proportioned bedrooms are served by a bathroom which would benefit from updating. There is gas central heating and double glazing throughout. Offered with a desirable nearby garage and immediate vacant possession, it provides the opportunity to move without delay.
What sets this home apart is its outside space. A private enclosed rear garden offers room to relax, entertain or cultivate, while the open front lawn enjoys an attractive outlook opposite. Outdoor space of this nature is rarely found with a maisonette and brings many of the qualities more often associated with bungalow living.
With over 900 years remaining on the lease, no maintenance charge and a nominal ground rent of less than £1 per month, in practical terms, this rivals freehold ownership and represents an excellent value. It is also a very affordable alternative to a bungalow for those seeking single-level living, and a compelling opportunity for a first-time buyer looking for space, independence and long-term value.
Having previously been let, the property comes with a full suite of certification in place, a point of particular reassurance to first-time buyers, who will also benefit from no Stamp Duty Land Tax liability. For investors, expects a realistic gross yield of 6.2%.
