A quiet, double bedroom, lower ground floor flat

The Area
This property is located in a well maintained Victorian terraced house, recently renovated sympathetically maintaining original features in a pretty street next to Preston Park station (2 minutes walk). It’s a lovely place to be based, with excellent local amenities - Preston Park with its many features and events is about 5 minutes' walk, Sainsbury’s local is round the corner (5 minutes’ walk) and there are a number of excellent pubs, and the best transport you could hope for by train, bus (a 5 minutes’ walk) bicycle or on foot.

The Property
The property entrance is via the front path, roses and lavender and a sunken front courtyard, and it has an independent, private entrance onto a corridor with coat racks. There is a large sitting room, a double bedroom, a well appointed kitchen with access to the rear courtyard and cellar (with deep freezer), and a bathroom comprising toilet, sink and shower. There is a front and rear patio, new flooring with underfloor insulation throughout, refurbished sash windows for warmth, and new electrics throughout. The accommodation faces east at the front and west at the rear and is sunny throughout the year - weather dependent of course!

The flat suits either an individual or a couple who like privacy and space. The monthly payment is inclusive of bills based on single occupancy, and can be adjusted for a couple, adding £200/month.

The software for SpareRoom does not enable listing of a whole ground floor WITH a live in landlord in the floors above an arrangement which is contractually a licence to occupy, not a tenancy. The Landlord is environmentally conscious, loves gardening, and works.
