majority gas central heating?

catoutthebag

I am going to view a flat with the above stated.
It is leasehold
I believe others in thr development are full gas central heating

In what way can a flat be 'Majority'...and how much to make it 'full'?

I wouldn't mind per se...but thinking of resale appeal.

It's double glazed I Should add

Thanks

Electric underfloor heating in the bathroom maybe?

I would assume that one or more rooms don't have any radiators, it's the same as when they advertise a property with "part" double-glazing, it means that some windows don't have it.

It's probably the kitchen without a radiator, there often isn't room for one. Do check all other rooms though if you view it, you don't want an unheated bathroom or bedroom!

It will mean that not all rooms wont have a radiator in them. Maybe the the kitchen has a plinth heater, or, as macca-girl suggests, underfloor heating.

Right just read the paper copy which has more infos

It appears that the kitchen which measures 9"5 by 7"11 has no central heating radiator

Is this a deal breaker?
Will it affect resale?
How much, if space, to fit a small radiator?

The boiler is in the kitchen.

I've noticed a space near the non built in cooker where a standalone looking single worktop with a sink for drawer and cupboard could be removed to fit a very small central heating radiator into the corner. Would thst be worth it?

Do buyers care?

The kitchen gas no diner and there is table space in the l shaped lounge

It is a 1 bed flat

Would be weird if other flats in thr development had heating in the kitchen

fit a fan operated plinth heater, smiths type are pretty good, if you feel the need to. it wont increase the value of the property though!

It may not need any heating. The first house i bought had central heating but none in the kitchen. As we were having other work done we had a radiator put in the kitchen and then found we only ever had it on in the absolute depths of winter when it was really really cold (and I am not someone who has their house at 15 degrees, I like a warm house). The kitchen seemed to get plenty warm from the door opening into the living room, the cooker when on and the hot water pipes running under the floor.

Nothing too weird, especially if the kitchen only has one external wall. It's only a small box.

In many houses you'd never even notice, but it's impossible to tell without being there, preferably first thing on a cold day!

I've never had heating in my kitchen, by choice. It never occurred to me that this could be a problem!

There are thousands and thousands of houses in the UK that don't have heating in the kitchen. Removing a cupboard to accommodate a rad would be a silly idea.
