2 bed flat for sale

Cranleigh House, 16 Overbury Avenue, Beckenham BR3

This beautifully maintained two-bedroom, two-bathroom ground-floor apartment on Overbury Avenue, Beckenham offers approximately 887 sq ft (82.4 sq m) of well-proportioned accommodation, together with its own private entrance, private garden, garage and parking. Forming part of an attractive development of just four apartments, the property combines the ease of apartment living with a number of features more commonly associated with a house, including direct access to its own outdoor space and excellent storage.

A particular highlight is the impressive open-plan kitchen/reception/dining room, measuring approximately 20'2 x 19'8 max. Generous proportions allow clearly defined areas for cooking, dining and relaxing while retaining an open and sociable feel. The Stoneham kitchen provides plenty of preparation and storage space, while a fitted bespoke unit and gas fireplace add both practicality and character to the living area. Underfloor heating runs throughout the apartment.

Doors lead directly from the living space onto the apartment's private rear garden, measuring approximately 29'6 x 27'2. This creates a particularly appealing extension of the living accommodation and provides genuine private outdoor space for relaxing, dining and entertaining. The property also benefits from access to a large communal garden, giving residents an additional area of established outside space to enjoy.

The principal bedroom is a generous 14'8 x 11'6 max and benefits from fitted wardrobes, attractive shutters and its own en-suite bathroom. Bedroom two measures approximately 9'10 x 9'7 and also incorporates fitted storage, making it equally suitable as a guest bedroom, child's room or dedicated home-working space.

A separate shower room provides the apartment's second bathroom, adding considerable practicality for both owners and guests. The property has been well maintained, with further features including underfloor heating throughout, attractive window shutters and a replacement boiler that has been regularly serviced.

Outside, the apartment has the significant advantage of its own garage with power and an electrically operated door. There is a parking space immediately to the front of the property, together with additional gated parking to the rear. CCTV provides another useful feature within the development.

With only four apartments in the development, the property offers a more intimate setting than many larger purpose-built developments. Its private entrance is another particularly appealing feature, allowing access without having to pass through a communal hallway.

Tenure. Share of Freehold, with approximately 102 years remaining on the lease.
