This ground-floor one-bedroom flat offers an affordable, chain-free entry into Cheshunt with a long lease (185 years) and allocated off-street parking. The open living/kitchen layout and double-glazed windows make the apartment bright and easy to maintain, ideal for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking straightforward accommodation close to local amenities and transport.
The flat is compact at around 360 sq ft, so it suits single-occupancy living or a couple who prioritise location and low upkeep over large living space. The bathroom is modern and the kitchen has contemporary cabinetry; note the listing mentions possible kitchen ventilation issues, so check extractor performance during a viewing.
Heating is by electric room heaters and the main fuel is electricity, which can be more costly than gas; prospective buyers should factor ongoing running costs into their budget. Broadband speeds are reported slow in the area, which could affect home working — mobile signal is excellent, however.
Practical leasehold costs are relatively modest: a below-average service charge of £120 and council tax described as cheap, though ground rent at £314 is average. As with any leasehold purchase, allow for additional leasehold pack or admin fees and consider a survey to confirm services and condition.
