There has been excellent ongoing maintenance to the likes of windows and doors and we would draw your attention particularly to the recent big ticket items which have seen some great investment. The home has been fully plastered and decorated during the last 12 months, the garage has been formally converted to create a ground floor bedroom plus ensuite and the contemporary dining kitchen was fitted around one year ago. The Vaillant gas central heating boiler is approximately four years old and the rear garden has been finished in a low maintenance style with a combination of patio and artificial turf. The quality of presentation is A1 and given the demand for homes in this vicinity, we would certainly recommend an early viewing. The sellers inform us that the property is Leasehold for a term of 999 years from construction subject to the payment of a yearly Ground Rent of £110. Council Tax Band D - £2,141.10 The Area: Beaumont Chase is a well regarded modern development constructed during 1994/1995 and is ideally located for access towards junction 5 M61 which is just around 1 mile away.
