2 bed flat for sale

Godstone Road, St Margarets TW1

Offered for sale with no onward chain, this is a wonderful opportunity to acquire a ground floor Edwardian purpose built maisonette, in need of refurbishment, with a share of freehold and front and rear gardens.

Situated on this sought after road, leading directly to Moor Mead Park, is this very characterful two bedroom apartment, with a wealth of period features, to include original wooden floorboards and doors, high decorative plaster ceilings and cast iron fireplaces.

Internally, the spacious layout of 681 square foot (63.2 sq m) comprises a large entrance hallway with ample space for hanging pictures and displaying books (access to which is via your own private front door). A beautifully light reception room with bay window, decorative plaster cornice and feature fireplace. Adjacent to this is the main bedroom with window overlooking the rear patio, built in wardrobe and a further cast iron fireplace. There is then a very generous bathroom with a white Victorian style suite, ceramic wall tiling and exposed wooden floorboards. Of particular note is the magnificent roll top bath with claw and ball feet.

There is then the second bedroom, with ensuite shower.

Finally, to the rear of the property is a garden, which is fenced on all sides and has an access gate for bikes, etc. The garden is currently used as a communal space by this maisonette and the one above, but each have their own half (divided across the middle) which could be fenced off, if you desire more privacy.
