Description
First floor flat | Two DOUBLE bedrooms | GARDEN | Spacious Lounge | Utility Room | Scope to extend | Service Charge £560 per annum | Ground Rent £10 per annum | EPC Rating C | Council Tax Band A.
Tucked away in Park North, this two-bedroom first floor flat offers far more than meets the eye. Park North itself is a popular and well-connected area, with plenty of local amenities close by. Regular buses run into Swindon town centre and on to the Orbital Shopping Park and Asda, with services running every 8 minutes—making travel and shopping exceptionally convenient.
Inside, a bright lounge and fitted kitchen create a welcoming feel, while a large utility room on the landing—complete with power and light—adds valuable extra storage. Subject to landlord consent, the utility space could be reconfigured to extend the kitchen, offering a more sociable and versatile layout. Both bedrooms are generously sized doubles, giving you the flexibility to adapt the space to your lifestyle. The second bedroom could easily serve as a dining room, a spacious home office, or a comfortable guest room.
Outside, the property really comes into its own with a fully enclosed, private garden complete with direct access from the building and a side gate—an unusual and highly desirable feature for a first-floor flat. Whether it's barbecues with friends, pottering about with plants, or simply enjoying a little peace and quiet, it's a space to truly make your own.
The building itself is of traditional construction and has no flat roofs, offering peace of mind when it comes to upkeep. The flat also benefits from double-glazed windows replaced in 2022 and a fire-rated front door installed in 2016.
