Agents Notes

The property is currently held under two separate titles. The current owners purchased both Apartment 1 and Apartment 2 and combined them to form one larger residence. Both apartments are leasehold, with 999-year leases commencing from 11 November 2002. The freehold is owned collectively by the residents through Chartwood (Ilfracombe) Management Company Limited. Each apartment holds a one-seventh share in the management company, so this sale will include two shares.

The service charge is approximately £300 per month, which covers the maintenance of communal areas and buildings insurance for both apartments. Lease-related fees are to be confirmed.

Commercial letting is not permitted, although the use of the property by family members and friends is allowed. The property can also be let on an Assured Shorthold Tenancy basis. Subject to prior consent from the management company, one pet per apartment is allowed, provided the property is owner-occupied.
