Description
This is a charming two bedroom apartment in an excellent spot in St. James's Square close to The Royal Crescent. The property has a generous sized main reception room that doubles as a living room/dining room, with a marble surround fireplace, dado rail and sash windows looking out to the Square.
The high ceilinged kitchen sits to the back of the house and looks to the garden behind. There are fitted units with a range cooker and space for fridge/freezer. There is a utility room and W.C on this floor too and access to the garden is through this room.
Downstairs are two large double bedrooms, one of which has a large en suite bathroom with separate bath and shower. There is a family shower room central to the hall.
Unusually and certainly beneficial to the apartment is a large internal vault that could provide more living space, a bedroom or family games/hobby room. It has windows to the front and has been partitioned off at the back to provide a storeroom. This is a fantastic space that could be made to work for any use.
The walled garden to the rear is mainly laid to patio but could be returned to lawn should one wish, it has a variety of mature shrubs and herbs growing alongside an attractive tree.

The next steps...

Establish funds

How will you fund the purchase?

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
