The Accommodation
ENTRANCE
The main entrance door leads through to the Communal Lobby. Stairs rise to the first-floor landing with a newly installed self-closing "Fire Door" front door, then leading through to:
HALL 3ft 3" x 3ft 2" (1m x 1m)
Doors from here lead off to the bathroom on the left and the main room ahead.
Two new electrical consumer units are situated above the front door: one for the main electrics and one for the Economy 7 electric heating. There is a new hard wired smoke detector on the ceiling.
(The access to the huge loft is via a hatch in the bathroom)
MAIN LIVING ROOM/BEDROOM 14ft 8" x 10ft 1" (4.5m x 3.1m)
Two South-East facing windows bathe this room in light, especially in the mornings when it is sunny.
A large fitted unit designed to look like wardrobes is, in fact, a central pulldown double bed with a thick 'Simba' mattress and wardrobes either side. This allows the room to be used as a dedicated Lounge during the day, a quick flip down of the bed, and it's a bedroom for the night!
A Storad SRC187 storage radiator provides plenty of cost effective heat for the entire flat and a new hard wired smoke detector has been installed on the ceiling.
KITCHEN 9ft 3" x 5ft 3" (2.8m x 1.6m)
Also bright and sunny courtesy of its South East facing window and fitted with a range of white kitchen units topped with black granite effect worktops and incorporating an built-in Electric Hob with a matching white Oven/Grill below and an Extractor Hood above, along with the freestanding washing machine and Fridger/Freezer, which will also be remaining. A new hard wired smoke detector is fitted on the ceiling.
A recess measuring 2ft 10" wide x 1ft 9" deep provides plenty of room for the freestanding Fridge/Freezer with adequate space for the ironing board, vacuum, brooms, etc.
BATHROOM 6ft 2" x 5ft 8" (1.9m x 1.7m)
Refitted with a modern white suite with a Triton T80 Electric Shower over the bath.
A further internal door opens to reveal the airing cupboard housing both the hot water cylinder and the cold water storage tank, with room left over for towel and linen storage.
EXTERIOR
This studio flat forms one of eight identical flats within the block, which has its own communal grounds including a well looked after private rear garden. The large car park provides abundant parking.
LEASE DETAILS
This was granted in Jan 1980 for 999 years, at an annual Ground Rent of one peppercorn!
SERVICE CHARGE
The current service charge is approximately £138 per calendar month.
WE THINK
With the onset of electric combination boilers and instant hot water taps, we have seen identical studios do away with the airing cupboard for even more storage, some removing them entirely to make the Main Room wider (easy as timber partition walls), another one we know of reconfigured the layout to create a separate bedroom. So the word 'potential' very much applies here too!

Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
