The layout is practical and inviting, providing a comfortable environment for everyday living. The reception room is bright and airy, offering ample space for both relaxation and dining, making it an ideal hub for entertaining or simply unwinding after a long day. Natural light floods the space, enhancing its welcoming atmosphere.
Adjacent to the living area, the kitchen, though requiring an update, provides a functional footprint ready for a contemporary transformation.

This presents a superb opportunity to add significant value and personalise the property from the outset.
The property boasts a generously sized double bedroom, offering a peaceful retreat. This room provides ample space for a large bed and additional furnishings, ensuring comfort and practicality. The bathroom, conveniently located, is also ripe for modernisation, allowing you to create a spa-like sanctuary tailored to your preferences.
One of the most compelling features of this flat is its outstanding leasehold terms: an impressive lease of over 900 years remaining, coupled with the significant advantage of zero service charges and ground rent (all to be confirmed via solicitors on purchase). This rare combination offers exceptional long-term security and remarkably low running costs, making it an incredibly attractive proposition for any buyer.

Location is key, and Gilderdale offers excellent proximity to a range of local amenities. Residents will benefit from easy access to local shops, supermarkets, and recreational facilities. Transport links are readily available, with convenient access to bus routes and major road networks, making commuting straightforward.
