1 bedroom flat for sale

A rare opportunity to purchase a spacious and well-appointed first-floor flat, set within an impressive period building just off Lodge Lane.

This attractively presented home offers generously proportioned accommodation, including a light-filled living room, a modern kitchen/breakfast room, a spacious double bedroom and a fitted bathroom. The property benefits from gas central heating and full double glazing throughout.

Believed to date from the late 18th century, the building was originally the farmhouse at Elm Farm. In the late 1990s, the surrounding farmland was developed to form the prestigious Elms development by Bryant Homes, and at the same time, the farmhouse itself was thoughtfully converted into six individual flats, each with its own charm and character. Flat 3 is widely considered to be one of the most desirable within the building.

In recent years, the flat has been further updated with a stylish new kitchen and bathroom, and the décor is tastefully finished in neutral tones, creating a bright and welcoming living space.

Access to the flat is via a secure video entry system leading into a communal entrance hall and staircase. The flat itself features a private reception hall with useful built-in storage. The living room is particularly spacious, with ample room for both sitting and dining areas, and benefits from a large Georgian-style double glazed window to the front, filling the space with natural light.

The kitchen/breakfast room is well fitted with a range of wall and base units, extensive work surfaces, an inset stainless steel sink, and space for appliances including a washing machine, cooker and fridge/freezer. There remains potential to add a breakfast bar, if desired, and a double glazed window offers an outlook towards Lodge Lane and Wraxall.

The double bedroom is another well-proportioned space, with room for a full range of freestanding furniture, and enjoys a pleasant view over the rear of the property. The bathroom has been thoughtfully updated and now features a white suite with a panelled bath and Mira shower over, complemented by tasteful tiling, a pedestal basin and WC.

Outside, the property benefits from its own generous, sunny private garden, laid mainly to lawn with a gravelled seating area, perfect for outdoor dining. A storage shed and access to a communal washing line are also provided. Parking is available for both residents and visitors, with spaces located to the side and rear of the building.

This is a superb opportunity to secure a spacious, characterful flat in a sought-after setting, combining the charm of a period home with the convenience of modern living.
