For Sale £80,000 - Flat
Priced to sell, this one-bedroom ground-floor purpose-built flat for the over-sixties is set in a very popular development in a very convenient location! It’s offered with no onward chain too!
A ground-floor flat, in a popular development for the over-sixties, set within walking distance of Whiteladies Road, with all of its shops and eateries, and the wide open space of the Downs. Offered with no onward chain, the flat is available at what seems to us to be a give-away price: don’t be put off by this as we don’t believe there to be anything particularly wrong with the flat (one slight exception might be the shower bath, but the vendors are prepared to replace this with a bath, if it’s a deal-breaker). It is just that the vendors are keen to sell up so they can wind up the estate.
