Description & Accommodation

This beautifully presented and well maintained first floor maisonette is ideal for first time buyers and has a lovely far reaching view from the kitchen and bedroom over the surrounding area towards Dartmoor. These sought after purpose built flats were constructed in the late 70’s and benefit from a long 999 year lease with 951 years remaining.

The property has been modernised over the years and now has a gas central heating system installed in place of the inefficient electric heaters, as well as uPVC double glazing. Being on first floor it also has access to a large loft space which has been fully boarded and with an access ladder fitted, proving plenty of useful storage. There is a shared external storage room adjacent to the front door. The property benefits from an allocated parking space with plenty of unrestricted on-street parking nearby.

The maisonette is approached across a maintained attractive, leafy green space with a pathway leading to its own private front door on the ground level. The front door opens to an entrance vestibule where there are a couple of useful storage cupboards, and stairs rising to the first floor landing. The main accommodation level is light and bright thanks to the crisp white contemporary colour scheme throughout. Carpets have been fitted throughout the property other than in the kitchen and bathroom which have vinyl flooring.

The living room is of a good size with a window giving an outlook over the green space to the front and has a handy storage cupboard in the space over the stairs. The kitchen is off the living room with a window giving a fabulous far reaching view over the surrounding area towards Dartmoor. There is a modern range of gloss white storage units above and below the contrasting grey marble effect work surfaces with tiled splashbacks. Appliances include an inset ceramic hob with a recirculating extractor over and an electric oven and grill below. There is space for a freestanding fridge freezer and space for an undercounter washing machine.

The double bedroom is off the landing and also has a lovely far reaching view from the window. There is a built in wardrobe across the inner wall providing clothes storage.
