About this home

OVERVIEW ***GUIDE PRICE £260,000 TO £280,000*** *******NO ONWARD CHAIN******* Positioned within the ever-popular Lexden Park development, this well-presented two-bedroom second floor apartment in Lucas House offers generous and thoughtfully arranged accommodation. Enjoying a pleasant outlook towards the established communal grounds and pond, the property combines a peaceful setting with practical modern living. Ideal as a primary residence, investment purchase, or convenient lock-up-and-leave, the apartment further benefits from a garage and access to well-kept communal areas.

STEP INSIDE Accessed via a communal entrance, the apartment opens into a central hallway which provides access to all rooms and includes useful storage. To the rear of the building, the principal living space is a bright and spacious sitting room measuring approximately 16'8" x 15'6" (5.1m x 4.7m), featuring a wide window formation that frames attractive views over the pond and surrounding greenery. The proportions of the room allow for both comfortable seating and additional furnishing.

Positioned separately, the kitchen measures around 14'7" x 8'6" (4.4m x 2.6m) and is arranged with a comprehensive range of fitted wall and base units, providing ample storage and work surfaces. Integrated appliances include an oven with electric hob and extractor, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, and a stainless steel sink with drainer, alongside designated space for a washing machine. There is also sufficient room for a compact dining table, making the space both functional and sociable.

The main bedroom is a well-proportioned double room measuring approximately 13'1" x 13'1" (3.9m x 3.9m), featuring twin windows that allow in plenty of natural light and offer a pleasant outlook across the parkland and pond. This room benefits from its own en-suite shower room (9'2" x 6'4" / 2.8m x 1.9m), fitted with a shower enclosure, wash basin, and WC.

The second bedroom, measuring around 15'0" x 8'5" (4.5m x 2.5m), provides flexible accommodation and is currently arranged as a guest bedroom, though equally suitable as a home office or dressing room.
