NO ONWARD CHAIN AND NOT YOUR AVERAGE MAISONETTE… AND THE GARDEN HAS A SURPRISE
If you thought maisonette living meant compromising on outside space, Charleston Court would like a word.
Beautifully presented, stylish throughout and offered with no onward chain, this fantastic two bedroom ground floor maisonette comes with its own landscaped rear garden, allocated parking and even a powered summerhouse/games room.
Yes, you read that correctly.
Step inside and the inviting entrance hallway introduces a home that feels every bit as good as it looks.
The lovely size lounge/diner is made for both putting your feet up and having people over, with feature wood panelling adding a stylish focal point and giving the room some serious personality. Even better, you can step directly from here into your own private rear garden – ideal when the sun makes one of its occasional appearances.
The stunning kitchen is smart, contemporary and beautifully presented, while the well-appointed bathroom continues the modern feel.
There are also two good size bedrooms, giving you plenty of options. Main bedroom and guest room? Home office? Dressing room? A room specifically for all the things you promised you’d eventually put away? We’re not judging.
Now, back to that garden.
Landscaped with artificial grass, it offers all the greenery with considerably less weekend maintenance. There’s plenty of space for outdoor furniture, summer drinks and entertaining, but the real talking point is waiting at the bottom of the garden.
A summerhouse/games room with power and lighting.
Home office, games room, gym, bar or your very own escape when somebody else has control of the television – the possibilities are pretty tempting. There’s also a separate storage shed for all the practical stuff you’d rather not have on display.
The property also comes with an alarm system, allocated parking space and visitor parking, so friends and family have somewhere to park when they inevitably invite themselves over to inspect your new garden room.
And there’s another big tick in the box: NO ONWARD CHAIN.
The property currently has an approximately 85-year lease, and the owner would consider extending the lease depending on the offer received, giving prospective buyers an important additional point to discuss during negotiations.
So, what have we got?
Two good size bedrooms, stylish interiors, a private landscaped garden, powered summerhouse, allocated parking, visitor spaces and no onward chain.
Maisonette? Technically, yes. Ordinary? Not a chance.
