With an elevated position on the sixth floor, this two-bedroom apartment is filled with natural light and enjoys leafy, far-reaching views from its private balcony across communal lawns and mature trees. It sits within a Mid-Century apartment building, set well back from the road and surrounded by greenery, creating a peaceful retreat close to the city. Recently refurbished to a high standard with a brand-new kitchen and bathroom, the apartment is move-in ready and offers stylish, contemporary living in a sought-after location with excellent transport links nearby. Parking is on a first-come-first-served basis to the rear, plus this apartment comes with the rare advantage of a private garage, and you’re just a short walk from Preston Park Station or a two-minute drive from the A23. With so many positive attributes, we do not expect it to sit on the market for long.

Why you’ll like it:
Set within a smart Mid-Century block surrounded by mature trees and landscaped grounds, this sixth floor flat has been completely refurbished and modernised throughout, making it move-in ready. Benefiting from a long lease of over 160 years and no ground rent, it offers both style and peace of mind for the future.

You enter via secure communal ways, and a lift takes you to the sixth floor. The flat itself opens to a welcoming hallway with built-in storage, leading into a bright, open-plan living and dining room. Full-height windows flood the space with natural light, and sliding doors connect seamlessly to the balcony, where you can sit out and enjoy the peaceful outlook across the treetops.

The brand-new kitchen has been stylishly fitted with modern units and integrated appliances, while the newly installed bathroom combines fresh décor with contemporary fixtures. Both bedrooms are well-proportioned, with space for double beds and freestanding furnishings.

Practicality is well covered with a private garage, additional unallocated residents’ parking, and a low monthly maintenance charge of just £102.

Agent’s thoughts:
It’s rare to find a flat in this development that has been so thoughtfully updated. With its long lease, modern finish and excellent outdoor space, it’s an ideal first home or investment.

Owner’s thoughts:
“We bought this as a doer-upper 2.5 years ago and completely refurbished it. It’s been a joy to live here – the balcony is a real highlight, and having the garage has been a huge bonus.”
