The Accommodation
Composite front door through to:
L-SHAPED HALLWAY
The gorgeous wood flooring extends on into the Lounge and both bedrooms.
A large full height built in cupboard provides a super storage facility.
LOUNGE 13ft 4' (4.1 m) x 12ft (3.7 m)
The large front facing window brings in lots of natural daylight.
The original fireplace has been boarded up, but we noted an air vent at the bottom, and we understand that the upstairs flat still uses their fireplace and so one can only presume it would be fairly straightforward to reinstate it and have a full working fireplace if desired.
KITCHEN 10ft 6" (3.2 m) x 9 ft (2.7 m)
Fitted with a modern range of light wood effect units topped with shiny black/grey worktops and incorporating a sleek black Electric Hob with a matching black Multi-Function Oven below and an Extractor Hood above. Plus, there are spaces below the worktops for three appliances (washing machine, dishwasher, and a fridge).
The kitchen still retains its original built-in shelved ladder, which is 1ft 8" (0.5 m) deep internally, therefore some of the shelves could be removed in favour of a freezer if required.
Plus, with the outside measurements 4ft 3" (1.3 m) x 1ft 9" (0.5 m), the whole thing could be removed of course in favour of fitted kitchen units.
A 'black gloss' wall mounted cupboard opens to reveal the Ideal 'Logic Max Combi C24' Gas fired Combination Boiler and the part glazed UPVC back door, rear main window and a little window to the right of the back door, makes it a very bright kitchen.
BEDROOM ONE 15ft 3' (4.7 m) x 8ft 4" (2.5 m)
A huge front facing bedroom with the measurements excluding a very large walk-in understairs cupboard with a light.
BEDROOM TWO 12ft 1" (3.7 m) x 8ft 7" (2.6 m)
A good size double bedroom with a rear facing window enjoying the pleasant outlook over the garden.
BATHROOM 6 ft (1.8 m) x 5ft 6" (1.7 m)
Dated but exceedingly clean and functional.
A rear facing window brings in plenty of natural light and up high is a useful full width built in storage cupboard.
GARDEN
The garden itself is 83ft long, predominantly lawn with two brick outbuildings at the top and a path leading down to a huge timber workshop at the end of the garden.
The back door from the kitchen opens on a concrete path which runs along the back of the property, this running straight onto an area of chunky solid wood decking approximately 9 ft squared, the area covered by fabric covered framework above, providing a rain proof outside dining and entertaining area during the summer months. The decking in turn directly accesses the two brick storage sheds.
STORAGE SHED ONE 8ft 1" (2.5 m) x 4ft10' (1.5 m)
There's a rear facing original metal window, and we note power is connected for the tenant's spare fridge, freezer and washing machine.
We have often seen buildings like this insulted, 'drylined' and made into great little home offices.
STORAGE SHED TWO 4ft 8' (1.4 m) deep x 3ft 5" (1 m) wide.
Some useful shelving has been added, all making for an exceedingly useful outside store.
WORKSHOP 15ft 2" (4.6 m) x 9ft 7" (2.9 m)
A Perspex skylight window brings in natural light and we noticed LED lighting and several double power sockets. A useful detached-from-the-Main-Home space.
FRONT GARDEN
Simply lawn with a path up to the Front Door. Many others along the street have created Front Drives on theirs.
LEASE:
The Lease was 125 years at the point of the current Vendors purchase in May 2004, so 105 years remain from this year.
SERVICE CHARGE
The service charge is £643.16 per year. (As of 31st March 2023 - 31st March 2024)

Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on February 12, 2024
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on February 12, 2024
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
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on February 7, 2024 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
