Just a short walk to the High Street, shops, cafés, restaurants and Dorking's mainline stations, the property would make an excellent first-time purchase or investment.
The accommodation begins in a communal entrance which leads to a private doorway and into the property. A real feature of the property is the particularly generous living/dining room, which benefits from two large windows allowing plenty of natural light to flood the space. There is ample room for a large sofa as well as a dining table, while the proportions also allow for a dedicated home-working area without compromising the main living space. The separate kitchen is fitted with a range of base and eye-level units complemented by contrasting worktops and tiled splashbacks, with space for a selection of appliances.
The double bedroom is another bright room, benefiting from a large sash window and providing space for a double bed and additional furniture. Completing the accommodation is a shower room fitted with a walk-in shower enclosure, WC and wash hand basin.
The property's central Dorking location is a particular advantage, with the High Street and its excellent selection of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities close at hand. Meadowbank Park and Dorking Halls are also nearby, while Dorking's railway stations provide convenient connections towards London and the surrounding area.
The property is leasehold with 120 years remaining.
