Prospect House, Standish

PRICED LOW & OPEN TO OFFERS TO ENCOURAGE A SWIFT SALE. WE ARE LOOKING FOR CASH BUYERS ONLY who are able to complete within 8 weeks.
Tucked away at the very top of the prestigious Green Lane, this attractively priced upper-floor two-bedroom apartment offers generous open-plan living and the added advantage of no upward chain.
Prospect House is a high-quality, purpose-built development set within a secluded, tree-lined position, perfectly combining peace and privacy with exceptional convenience. The village centre is less than a 10-minute walk away, and the M6 motorway is within 1.5 miles, making this one of Standish’s most sought-after and well-connected locations. The development also benefits from allocated parking, a secure intercom entry system, and lift access to all floors, with apartments here rarely coming to market.
Apartment 11 is finished in a light, contemporary style and has been realistically priced to encourage strong early interest. The accommodation briefly comprises an entrance hallway, a spacious open-plan lounge with an attractive outlook, a well-fitted modern kitchen, a stylish main bathroom and two double bedrooms, with the master bedroom further enjoying an en-suite shower room.
This property would suit a wide range of buyers — from first-time purchasers and young professionals to downsizers seeking a low-maintenance home in an exclusive setting.
Externally, there is an allocated parking space, along with ample visitor parking available within the development.
Early viewing is highly recommended. No chain delay.
BUYERS PLEASE NOTE:
1. Service Charge
The latest service charge invoice, dated 01/04/2026, is £1,582.99 for a six-month period. The invoices dated 01/04/2025 and 01/10/2025 show a temporary increase in charges due to major works, which have now been completed.
These major works included:
Roofing works completed during the 2024/25 financial year. Lift repairs and maintenance. Render and external repairs. Fire system and fire door repairs and maintenance. Tree felling and gardening works. The annual expenditure for the block has reduced by £36,229 compared to last year.
There is also a £4,000 capital/sinking fund and a further £4,000 lift capital expenditure fund. These funds are being built up in anticipation of future costs, now that the recent major works have been completed.
2. Ground Rent Deed of Variation
The ground rent is currently £150 per annum, but it is reviewed every 25 years and as per the current clause could increase to 8.5% of the property's capital value:
Our clients have instructed KJD Law to apply for a Deed of Variation to remove this clause and we understand this process can take a minimum of 6 to 12 weeks.
3. Freeholder Transfer Notice Fee
The freeholder charges 0.5% of the transaction value for accepting notices of transfer, rather than a fixed fee:
While unusual, this would amount to approximately £550 on a £110,000 sale and could be negotiated as part of the final sale price.
4. Consent for Letting
Any future tenancy agreement would require the freeholder's consent:
According to E&M Estate Management's published fees, the current fee to register a subletting arrangement in 2025 is £139.22. This could also be addressed during negotiations on the final sale price.
Ground rent is £12.50 PCM. EPC rating is B. Council tax band is B.
