Positioned on the 2nd floor of this character building previously converted into just 5 units, this charming property is approached via a communal entrance hall with telephone security entry system and stairs rising to the 2nd Floor. A door from the communal area opens to the rear of the property where communal grounds lead to 2 parking spaces (not allocated, 2 spaces shared between 4 flats) accessed via Coley Hill. The front door to this property opens to an entrance hall with doors to the living room and a separate re-fitted fully tiled contemporary shower room with heated towel rail and large walk in shower. The front aspect Living Room boasts elevated views over roof tops and hills beyond and also features a lovely original fireplace and mantle over. The fitted kitchen accessed from the living room is well appointed and includes integrated electric hob and oven with extractor over and also the gas fired 'combi' boiler. A generous rear aspect Bedroom is complemented by fitted wardrobes providing ample storage.
This sought after home is likely to attract interest from First Time Buyers and 'Buy-to-Let' investment purchasers by offering an attractive annual rental yield of circa 5.4% per annum. With high ceilings throughout, large Georgian Sash Windows to the main rooms, plus the elevated position and second floor outlook all promote great natural light in this unique and desirable Apartment that must be seen to be appreciated.
