First time buyers who can complete before the 1st April 2025, can save £11,250 in Stamp Duty! An opportunity to purchase this large 3-bedroom garden flat of 1081 square feet / 100.5 square meters, converted in 1995, rented to friends of the owner for the last 20 years until recently and is now in need of some TLC. We have allowed for the condition of the property in the asking price.

Although this property was converted from the period terraced house into 3 flats 29 years ago in March and is perfectly viable and mortgage worthy. It is now an opportunity for a purchaser to do a comprehensive renovation of both the accommodation and the 32 foot long private garden.

Nightingale Road is a wide street of different styles of period properties in what continues to be a sought-after location.

The accommodation

There is a communal front garden with a large Buddleia providing some privacy. The original front door opens into the communal hallway.  

The flat front door is into the entrance hallway, it is an interesting plan for this flat as it is on serval levels with the lounge with its tall ceilings and large 3 light bay window at the front, with the bathroom and one of the bedrooms also at this entrance level. There is a short staircase down to a further hallway, this level also has the large open plan kitchen dinner with its French doors onto the private rear garden. The gas central heating boiler is on the wall in the kitchen. From the lower hallway there is a staircase that turns up to a landing and another double bedroom. Finally, the lower hallway has a third short staircase down to the lowest floor level which has a hallway and another large double bedroom. 

The leasehold title 

The lease is for125 years from the 25th March 1995, so 96 years unexpired which is suitable for some years to come for mortgage security.  

Look Property refer a solicitor who specializes in lease extension work, we have copied some of her recent note below. We will happily refer her to any interested purchasers interested in extending the lease at any time. 

Please be aware that the Leasehold and Freehold Reform Act (“the Act”) was given royal assent on 24 May 2024 however we are not sure as of yet when the Act will come into force although we have now had confirmation from the government that they will be implementing point 2 (listed below) in January 2025 meaning that a buyer will no longer have to wait a period of 2 years to extend the lease.  

 

The Act (once in force) will implement the following changes to how lease extensions are dealt with: - 

 

An extension of 990 years instead of 90 years;  

Removal of the 2 year ownership rule for leaseholders meaning that a new buyer can apply to extend the lease; and 

Calculation of the premium by removing marriage value and using deferment and capitalisation rates. 

Ground rent: £200 per annum. 

Service Charges: To be confirmed pending commutation with the managing agents. 

EPC: Band D

Council tax: Band C

Disclosure: A repair was carried out by a reputable builder to the external stonework on the bay window several months ago, we believe the rainwater ingress has been fixed, details of the repair available on request. 

Viewings:
