The Norfolk Agents are pleased to present this Grade II* listed apartment, located on the historic Quay of King's Lynn. This unique property is part of an early 17th century L-shaped house, (previously the District Council offices between 1950-1982), when the house was split into two properties.
The present plan follows a medieval form and is one of the last houses in Kings Lynn to use this historic layout, with the spacious accommodation comprising entrance hall, bathroom and bedroom on the ground floor with a kitchen and lounge/dining room arranged around the first-floor landing.
By being a resident of Riverside Court, you gain access to communal gardens, one allocated car parking space and bin storage. The communal gardens lay in the grounds where there were once medieval warehouses on the banks of the River Ouse. This apartment benefits from having its own courtyard garden to the
front.
LEASEHOLD
The property tenure is leasehold, and we are told there are approximately 960 years remaining on the lease. There is a service charge of £25pcm, which contributes towards the maintenance of the communal gardens, electric gates and car park. Upon purchasing a property on Riverside Court, you become a director and shareholder of the management company, therefore no ground rent is due.
SERVICES
The property has connections to mains gas, electric, water and drainage with central heating provided via a gas combination boiler, which has been installed in the last couple of years and is controlled by a HIVE smart thermostat. Council Tax Band: B
