Energy Rating: C73 Exclusive to Maslen Estate Agents. What the owner says: "I’ve had a fantastic 8yrs living in this flat as my first solely owned property.
The pictures show the bright airiness of the lounge in the summer but I like nothing more than lighting the wood burner on a dark winters evening and getting cozy.
The flat is in a great location - really close to the bus and train station or close by to a walk on the downs.
