Council Tax Band: B (Torbay Council)
Tenure: Freehold
One of the standout features of this property is its rare freehold tenure, which is uncommon for a maisonette. As a freehold owner, you have complete control over the property without the burden of restrictive covenants typically imposed on leasehold properties. There is no service charge or ground rent.
The maisonette is equipped with electric storage heaters throughout. However, there is a gas supply to the property, requiring only the installation of a meter and a gas boiler. The ideal location for the boiler would be in the en-suite of bedroom one, where, according to the vendor, gas piping has already been conveniently positioned. The vendor has obtained an estimate for the gas supply installation, which is expected to cost between £4,000 and £5,000.
Additionally, the property has recently undergone significant improvements, including a full re-roofing, the installation of a new water main, updated plumbing, and modernised electrics. With these essential upgrades already completed, future maintenance costs are expected to be minimal, making this an exceptionally low-maintenance and cost-efficient home.
