The kitchen is fitted with a range of units and incorporates a built-in oven and hob, whilst a rear lobby provides access to the bathroom.
Externally, residents enjoy the use of communal gardens. A particularly rare and valuable feature is the inclusion of a single garage, situated to the rear of the property with vehicular access from St George's Road, providing secure parking or additional storage.
Offered for sale with vacant possession and no upper chain, this characterful apartment presents an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers, downsizers or investors seeking a well-located home with period charm, gas to radiator central heating and the added benefit of a garage.
