OWNERS INSIGHT

"We bought our flat as we were stepping out from the real world to run campsites around the UK, but we didn't want to step off the property ladder. This property suited us perfectly, and it has many attributes that attracted us. When we bought it, the previous owners had boarded, and plastered, the concrete ceilings (not a good look, that made me think of my old school), and all the walls. This allied to the laminate flooring, new kitchen, fitted wardrobes and good decoration made it a perfect buy. You look over the car park, but you more importantly overlook the trees and garden, which is very pleasant to see the seasons change. The building has been reroofed, reinsulated and redecorated since 2016, and you will notice that the property is quite warm without heating, as you have 2 flats beneath you providing the heat! We are only selling as we are retiring, and need to buy a property for ourselves. It's been a great property to own, and we hope the new owners enjoy it too."
