Light-filled living room with box bay window

Around 618 sq ft — manageable two-bedroom size
Potential leasehold/admin fees and untested services
Light-filled and well-proportioned, this two-bedroom first-floor apartment sits in a peaceful riverside development in Stanstead Abbotts. The living room benefits from a box bay window and wooden flooring, and both bedrooms are comfortable for a starter home or commuter couple. Allocated off-street parking and attractive communal gardens add practical value and pleasant outdoor space.
Practical aspects suit first-time buyers: a long lease (about 140 years remaining), affordable council tax banding, fast broadband and easy walking access to the village high street and rail links into London. The property’s size (around 618 sq ft) makes for a manageable home with low flood risk and an overall well-maintained communal environment.
Be aware of a few material points: heating is by electric storage radiators, which can be less economical than gas central heating; the kitchen is compact; and the property is leasehold, so buyers should allow for potential leasehold-related fees such as admin or lease packs. Services and appliances have not been independently tested—commission a survey or service reports before committing.
This apartment will suit a first-time buyer or commuter seeking an affordable riverside base with good local schools nearby, handy transport links, and pleasant communal grounds. Its combination of location, long lease and allocated parking presents straightforward move-in potential with modest updating possible to personalise the space.
