1 bed flat for sale

Stretford Road, Whitehall BS5

"When I bought this as my first home I didn't know the area well at the time, but I fell in love with St George straight away - especially the park, which is just a stone's throw away (you can even see the trees from the window!). Taking my dog there early in the morning is a treat i'll truly miss when I leave. On longer days, the sunset from the kitchen window fills the room with a warm, magical light."

The flat

A beautiful one-bedroom first floor flat in a Victorian end-of-terrace on Stretford Road, seconds away from St George’s park. The whole flat is filled with natural light, benefiting from the open corner aspect of the building, creating brightness throughout even in the winter months. The bay window in the living room looks out onto the striking St Ambrose’s church & the trees in the park, creating a lovely outlook that gives the room a calm, almost leafy feel despite being on a residential street. With alcove shelving, warm tones and plenty of space for a sofa and a desk alongside it, it's a room that has versatility and doesn’t feel cramped. The kitchen has room for a small dining table alongside the units, the bedroom is a comfortable double, and the bathroom has a full-sized bath. It's also worth highlighting the private entrance at street level, which comes with its own hallway - currently used for bike storage - giving the flat a degree of practicality and independence that's relatively unusual for a property of this type. It makes the day-to-day feel closer to living in a house than a flat.

This flat has a criss-cross lease, is being sold chain free and has the option to be bought furnished.

Yearly Peppercorn Charge of £3

The outside space

An enclosed storage space round the back of the building, useful for bikes, surfboard etc. And a front patio shared with the ground floor flat,
