Merrow Lane, Burpham, GU4

On Merrow Lane in Burpham, this two bedroom flat is chain-free and has a share of the freehold, a combination that suits first-time buyers and downsizers.

The interior is contemporary, with light rooms, oak-effect flooring and a modern kitchen. The living room is of a good size, both bedrooms are comfortable, and the bathroom is neatly finished. With no chain to wait for, the flat could be ready for a new owner quickly, and the shared freehold gives a degree of control over the building that many flat owners value. It is well presented and straightforward to maintain.
