A wonderful chance to get a foot on the housing ladder with this delightful ground floor apartment with two double bedrooms, offering a bright interior and offering 818 sq. Ft/76 sq. M of accommodation and presented to the market with the bonus of no onward chain. The property boasts an enviable position, just a short walk to the mainline train station and within easy reach of all the town's amenities. The apartment forms part of a former family home and boarding school, believed to date to 1812 and is set in beautifully maintained grounds with a view over the central pond and garden. In keeping with the era, the apartment boasts character features which include high ceilings, ornate ceiling roses and picture rails. The property also benefits from uPVC double glazing with a Georgian style bar, gas fired central heating from a combination boiler and has its own external door to the side and from the bay in bedroom two. It has also been re-decorated and is ready to move into. A viewing is absolutely necessary to truly appreciate the delightful and tranquil surroundings and how easily it would satisfy many potential buyers' needs, not just as a first home but a great downsize, retreat from a hectic city life or even as an investment for the rental market. An early viewing is strongly recommended so as not to miss out on the opportunity to be the next owner.
