A well-presented studio apartment offering an excellent investment opportunity, conveniently positioned for access to the town and its amenities.

Under the current ownership, the property was refurbished to include a new kitchen, new water cylinder, redecoration throughout and new flooring, creating a fresh and modern living environment.

The accommodation features an open-plan living room and kitchen, with magnolia-painted walls, grey wood-effect laminate flooring and double doors opening onto a Juliet balcony. The modern kitchen is fitted with grey units and marble-effect worktops, together with an integrated oven, ceramic hob and extractor above. There is also space for a small washing machine.

The bathroom comprises a white suite with bath, wall-mounted shower, pedestal wash hand basin and WC. An airing cupboard situated just outside the bathroom provides useful additional storage and houses the hot water cylinder.

A private storage cupboard for the apartment is located on the ground floor.

There is no allocated parking with the property, although on-street parking and local car park permits are available from the Council, subject to availability.

The property is offered for sale as an investment opportunity with a tenant in situ, currently paying £650 per calendar month on an Assured Periodic Tenancy. This provides an immediate rental income for the purchaser, subject to the terms of the existing tenancy.

Overall, the property offers well-presented accommodation, useful storage and a Juliet balcony, together with the benefit of an existing rental income.
