Tenure: Share of Freehold
The current owner knew this was the flat for him, when he walked through the front door and was hit by the afternoon sun as it shone through the lounge window and across the hallway.
Forty years later and the lounge is still the room where he spends most of his time, and who wouldn't when it's such a large, open and sunny space?
The glazed double doors from the hallway and the glazed door to the balcony, enhance this feeling of space and also make this a great environment for entertaining friends and family.
All rooms lead from the generous hallway and all have large windows, so at all times of day there is light bouncing around the flat.
The kitchen is the first room you come to, it is a good size with plenty of floor and wall units, appliances, a double oven, and views of the trees to the back and the private balcony.
Across the hallway is the bathroom with bath and overhead shower, sink, and cupboard (which provides good storage and the hot water tank).
The toilet is a separate room to the side of the bathroom and there is potential to knock the two together to make one, much larger room.
Heading past the lounge you'll find the second bedroom which would make a perfect study/ guest bedroom, and is again very light and bright with built-in wardrobes and space for a double bed.
At the end of the hallway is the main bedroom, a very good-size room with built-in wardrobes.
Sitting on the balcony, you can look down to the attractive communal grounds with large lawn area, flower beds and mature trees. These gardens are secure with coded gate entry and are well used by residents to sit and enjoy the sun or for children to play safely.
Storage is always important in flats and this flat has sole use of the loft which runs the length of the flat. It is insulated, part boarded and also has lighting.
To the front there is off-street parking and to the rear this flat also has a garage.
Entry to the flat is controlled by mobile phone, so even if you're not home you'll know if you're having a parcel delivered.
Storage heating with Economy 7.
The service charge is in the region of £1,000pa which includes ground rent.
This flat comes with share of freehold and a long lease, and is available chain free.
Location, location, location.
Newport Lodge is just a short walk from Bush Hill Park train station from where you can be in the city within half a hour. On the way to the station, why not pop in for a trim or a cheeky latte in the village-feel shopping area on Queen Anne's Place?
If you need a pint of milk there's the Sainsbury's local on London Road, or if you need to do a bigger shop, there's another, larger, Sainsbury's just past the station. But of course, with restaurants in every direction you may just decide to eat out instead.
