Compact, ready-to-let flat near university and town centre.
New 125-year lease from July 2022
A compact, newly refurbished two-bedroom flat in the heart of Buckingham, offered with NO CHAIN and a new 125-year lease from July 2022. The property is 522 sq ft and has modern kitchen and bathroom fittings, double glazing, and off-street parking — features that appeal to buy-to-let purchasers or first-time buyers seeking a low-maintenance home near amenities.
The location is a major strength: a short walk to the town centre and the university, high broadband and mobile signal, and nearby shops, pubs and transport links. The layout is traditional and efficient, with an open-plan kitchen/living area, two bedrooms and a single bathroom — a straightforward floorplan for student or professional occupation.
Buyers should note material drawbacks plainly. The property sits in a high flood-risk area and in a neighbourhood with higher crime levels; these factors will affect insurance costs and tenant demand. Heating is via electric storage heaters and the cavity walls are assumed without added insulation, which may mean higher running costs compared with gas-heated homes. Additional leasehold fees and typical purchase costs may apply.
Overall this is a tidy, ready-to-let or move-in property with immediate income potential for investors or an accessible first purchase for buyers prepared to manage the location risks. The short distance to the university increases lettability, but purchasers should factor in flood risk, local crime, and running costs when assessing value.
