Set over multiple levels in a handsome early 20th-century building, this very large three-bedroom apartment offers exceptional living and entertaining space close to Berkhamsted High Street and the mainline station. The vaulted 34-foot sitting/dining room with exposed beams and a spiral staircase creates a dramatic family hub, while the fitted kitchen/breakfast room and separate utility-style shower room add practical everyday convenience. A private rear garden with mature planting, plus a standalone shepherd’s hut with kitchenette, shower, wood burner and Wi‑Fi, extend the living space and suit flexible uses — home office, guest suite or teen hangout.
Practical strengths include designated off-street parking for three cars, an electric car charging point, lift access, and a mix of underfloor heating and radiators served by mains gas. The apartment is Freehold and substantially larger than typical town flats (circa 2,288 sq ft), offering rare scale and privacy within a conservation area and immediate access to the canal and transport links.
Buyers should note material drawbacks plainly. The property sits in a high flood-risk zone and is located in an area with higher crime levels; prospective purchasers should seek detailed flood mitigation and security information. The communal garden is private to the development but other residents are permitted to use it for relaxation only, which limits exclusivity. The building dates from the 1930s–1940s and, while upgraded (double glazing, modern heating), future buyers should budget for age-related maintenance and periodic updates.
This home suits families or professionals who prioritise generous internal space, strong transport links and outdoor living close to town amenities. For those comfortable managing the flood and security considerations, it represents a rare opportunity to own a large, characterful Freehold apartment with standalone ancillary accommodation in central Berkhamsted.
