Description
Offering a combination rarely found so close to the centre of Watlington, this two-bedroom first-floor apartment comes with a share of the freehold, approximately 950 years remaining on the lease, its own garage and allocated off-road parking.
The property is just a short walk from the town's shops, cafés and everyday amenities and is approached through a communal courtyard garden. A secure entry door with intercom system leads into the building, with stairs rising to the first floor.
Inside, the apartment opens into an entrance hall with useful built-in storage. The main bedroom is a good-sized double with fitted wardrobes, while the second bedroom works well as a single bedroom, home office or occasional guest room. There is also a modern shower room.
The main living space is a generous and bright sitting/dining room, with a box bay window bringing plenty of natural light into the room. A separate fitted kitchen is positioned just off the sitting room.
Outside, the apartment has the considerable advantage of both an allocated parking space and a garage, particularly useful given its central location.
With its share of freehold, exceptionally long lease, garage, parking and convenient position close to the centre of Watlington, the property offers a particularly practical package and is available with no onward chain.
