Description

Tucked away within the popular Singleton area of Ashford, this beautifully presented one bedroom ground floor maisonette offers stylish, modern accommodation, a private rear garden and two parking spaces positioned in the car park opposite. Having been extensively updated, including all new doors and windows, by the current owner since purchasing in 2023, the property is ready to move straight into and offers a particularly attractive and cost effective leasehold arrangement, with the remainder of a 999 year lease, £0 service charge and peppercorn ground rent.

The accommodation opens into a bright and welcoming living room, finished in soft neutral tones with wood effect flooring and plenty of space for comfortable seating and additional furniture. A large front window allows plenty of natural light into the room, helping to create a relaxed and inviting living space.

The inner hallway connects the remainder of the accommodation, with the modern kitchen positioned to the rear. Replaced by the current owner, the kitchen has been finished with contemporary white gloss cabinetry, contrasting work surfaces and metro style tiling. Integrated cooking appliances sit neatly within the units, while there is further space for freestanding appliances. A rear door provides direct access into the garden, adding a particularly useful connection between the kitchen and outside space.

The bedroom is a comfortable double and has been thoughtfully presented with additional wall mounted storage, while still retaining space for freestanding bedroom furniture.

The bathroom has also been replaced and now offers a smart, modern finish with contemporary tiling, a white suite and bath with shower over. Together with the updated kitchen, redecoration and replacement water tank, the improvements carried out since 2023 mean that much of the work commonly associated with buying an older property has already been taken care of.

Outside, the property benefits from its own private rear garden, predominantly laid to lawn with established hedging, fencing and space for outdoor seating. There is also a useful garden shed and pedestrian access running alongside the property.

Parking is provided by two spaces within the car park opposite, adding another particularly practical feature to what is already a well rounded home.

A further major advantage is the lease itself. With the remainder of a 999 year term, no service charge and only a peppercorn ground rent, the property offers a much more straightforward and cost effective leasehold arrangement than many comparable homes. Combined with its immaculate presentation and modest running costs, this makes it an especially appealing option for first time buyers, downsizers and investors alike.

This is an excellent opportunity for buyers looking for an affordable home that does not require immediate improvement. The modern kitchen and bathroom, private garden, double bedroom, two parking spaces and highly attractive lease terms combine to create a property that feels considerably more complete than many traditional one bedroom alternatives.
