Summary - Wellstones, Watford WD17 2AF
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Affordable city-living close to stations and shops.
25% shared ownership — affordable initial purchase but staircasing costs possible
A compact, modern two-bedroom apartment offered as 25% shared ownership — an accessible route onto Watford’s property ladder. Built in 2022, the flat feels contemporary with an open-plan living area, high-spec integrated kitchen, two double bedrooms and two bathrooms, including an en-suite to the master. Lift access, secure video entry and underground garage parking add practical convenience for everyday living.
Location is a clear strength: a short walk to Watford Junction and High Street stations, with the Atria shopping centre, eateries and parks all nearby. The home is energy-efficient (EPC B) and low-maintenance, making it suitable for first-time buyers who want a move-in-ready city base or a buy-to-let investor targeting strong rental demand close to transport links.
Important matters to note: this is a leasehold property with a remaining term of 122 years and sold as 25% shared ownership, so buyers should budget for staircasing costs and possible additional leasehold fees. There is a public notice of an offer currently associated with the property. Heating runs via a community scheme (check running costs and service arrangements). The apartment’s overall size is small (approx. 500 sq ft), so consider space needs carefully.
The area is an inner-city, cosmopolitan neighbourhood popular with young families and students, but local crime levels are reported as very high — factor in personal and home security measures. Early enquiries are advised to clarify service charges, parking terms and any restrictions linked to the shared-ownership arrangement.
