2 bed Flat For Sale £160,000
A beautifully presented two bedroom ground-floor apartment situated in a period conversion in Stoneygate's conservation area. Positioned on the ground floor of a distinctive Edwardian building and available with no upwards chain, the property provides an excellent step onto the property ladder for any aspiring first-time buyer, a great addition to a buy to let portfolio or a comfortable family home.
Access into the building includes a communal entrance with many original features intact with stain-leaded windows to the rear aspect, original geometric ceramic floor tiles and high ceilings. To the right-hand side of the ground floor, you will find the apartment on offer. With an entrance hall providing dual access to all the living quarters, the flow of accommodation is great. To the front of the property is the master bedroom which is nothing short of impressive. With original sash bay windows that are complemented with bespoke and individually designed shutter blinds, many original features intact with high ceilings, picture rails and original oak flooring.
Off the entrance hall is a well-appointed kitchen which provides ample kitchen storage, space for relevant appliances alongside a four ring gas hob with concealed extractor fan alongside access to a further bedroom and a well presented, modern and recently renovated three-piece family bathroom. To the rear of the property is the living room which again retains many original features but is complemented with the most incredible views through french-doors onto a private, well maintained and mature garden which sits on an impressive plot.
The property benefits from off-road parking alongside access to the communal grounds which are maintained regularly. The property, unlike most apartments that often come to market, is commonhold. This means that each apartment owner (one of five) in the conversion own 20% of the freehold to the building and act as the management agent to the apartment block itself. This is an incredibly rare opportunity which should be acted upon to avoid disappointment.

The adjoining combined suburbs of Stoneygate and Clarendon Park also offer a full range of local amenities including shopping for day-to-day and specialist boutique bars, restaurants and shops found along Queens Road, as well as specialist shopping along Allandale Road and Francis Street.

Vendor comments:
" This is a stunning apartment which if it wasn't for me relocating due to work commitments, I wouldn't be selling it. The property has the most beautiful communal grounds which are private and well maintained regularly, as well as the perk of off-road parking. With many original features intact, I have put my own stamp on the apartment with bespoke shutter-blinds on the front bay window alongside recently renovating the bathroom. A great plus is that all the directors of the five flats in the block own 20% of the freehold so often discuss anything that needs updating via Whatsapp groups/Zoom calls which is handy, rather than relying on an external management company.
