Welcome to Duke Crescent, a spacious top-floor flat featuring two generously sized double bedrooms, ideally located within walking distance of the town centre. Perfect for first-time buyers or investors, this property offers the convenience of central living at an affordable price point, with the added benefit of low annual ground rent and service charges. Requiring refurbishment, the flat presents an excellent opportunity to add value. The accommodation includes a bright, front-facing lounge, a well-proportioned kitchen with town views, two large bedrooms, and a three-piece bathroom suite. For investors, this property offers strong rental potential. Once modernised, it is estimated to achieve a rental income of approximately £700 per calendar month.
Family Bathroom
Located at the top of the stairs, the bathroom includes a pedestal basin with mixer tap, WC, and a corner shower with an electric unit and glass screen. A frosted window provides natural light, while tiled walls and blue vinyl flooring complete the space. Functional as-is, with scope for modernisation.
Kitchen
Bright and front-facing, the kitchen offers pleasant views and is fitted with light oak-effect base and wall units, complemented by patterned laminate worktops and tiled splashbacks. There is space for an oven and hob beneath an existing extractor fan, and a chrome sink with chrome mixer tap sits beneath the large window. A cupboard above the stairwell provides a practical housing area for the boiler. The space is functional and ready for updating to suit modern tastes.
Lounge
A generously sized, front-facing lounge benefiting from a large window that fills the space with natural light. The room features a decorative gas fireplace with a marble-style surround and classic mantelpiece as a focal point. While currently stripped and ready for flooring, the space offers a blank canvas for refurbishment to suit modern tastes.
Bedroom One
A rear-facing double bedroom featuring a pendant light and radiator positioned beneath the window. The room is a blank canvas.
