Description
This is a top floor flat, one of four in this conversion of an Edwardian semi-detached house which is arranged over four floors. The freehold is owned by a company which in turn is owned by each of the leaseholders on an equal 25% basis. The current lease has about 65 years remaining which makes it suitable for investors/cash buyers not requiring a mortgage. It is not intended to extend the lease prior to sale but as a quarter share of the freehold is included an extension to the lease may be possible once a new owner takes possession, potential buyers should seek legal advice in this regard. The asking price more than reflects the length of the lease.

The property has a shared entrance with two other flats and also has use of the communal rear garden, shared with the other occupiers. There is no off-road parking but there is parking on the road. The property has double glazing and gas central heating. There is some restricted head height in both the bedroom and living room.

The communal entrance is at the side with stairs rising to the second floor and a private entrance to the flat. The flat has a spacious living room with useful eaves storage.

The bathroom is en-suite to the bedroom with a modern white suite.
