2 bed maisonette for sale

Guernsey Way, Kennington TN24

Tenure: Leasehold

Sometimes it's the things that aren't immediately obvious that make a home feel different.
This two-bedroom first-floor maisonette is tucked away from busy road and noise, yet just moments from local shops, amenities and handy transport links. It's a convenient location, but step inside and it's the space itself that starts to make the impression.

The rooms are genuinely well proportioned throughout.

The bright living room gives you plenty of space to relax, while the kitchen has room for everything you need, together with the flexibility to add a breakfast bar or small table if that's how you'd like to use the space.

And there's a theme that continues throughout the apartment.

There are no "small rooms".

That's particularly noticeable with the bedrooms.

It's not unusual in an apartment for the main bedroom to get the generous proportions, with the second bedroom sacrificed in the process. You end up with a room that's technically a bedroom, but where fitting a double bed can leave very little room for anything else.

That's not quite the case here.

The second bedroom is capable of accommodating a double bed, although once the bed is in place you'll need to think carefully about how you use the remaining space. Alternatively, it makes a very useful single bedroom, home office or occasional guest room.

It's a genuinely usable room. You just don't want to pretend it's something it isn't.

The bathroom is light and bright and benefits from its own window.

That might sound like a small detail, but it makes a surprisingly big difference. Natural light and fresh air change the feel of a bathroom, and it's another example of the thought that's gone into the layout.

But there's one feature that really sets this property apart.

It's a maisonette rather than a conventional apartment, which means you have your own private entrance directly from outside.

On paper, that might not sound like a huge difference.

In real life, it can be.

If you've ever lived in an apartment and come home after a long day to find yourself navigating communal hallways, stepping around pushchairs, squeezing past wet bikes or hoping nobody has left muddy footprints across the floor, you'll understand.

Here, you turn your own key, cross your own threshold and you're home.

No shared landing.

No communal hallway.

No wondering who has left what outside their door.

Just your own front door and your own space beyond it.

Outside, there are two allocated parking spaces, so coming home after work doesn't involve driving around wondering where you're going to leave the car.

The property is also offered with no onward chain, helping to keep the buying process as straightforward as possible.

Maisonettes often find themselves falling through the cracks between a house and an apartment - but the truth is that they offer the best of both worlds, and this 2 bedroom home in the most convenient of locations gives you everything you could wish for. But don’t take our word for it - call us to arrange a viewing and come and see for yourself.
