1 bed 1 bath Flat
Ideal entry-level buy-to-let close to town centre and transport links.
Close to Bedford town centre and transport links
A one-bedroom leasehold flat offered at auction, situated within walking distance of Bedford town centre and local transport links. The open-plan layout and contemporary kitchen offer ready living space, while the overall apartment sits in a post‑war brick block with communal parking. There is no upper chain, which supports a quick completion through the auction process.
This property is sold by the Modern Method of Auction. The buyer must complete within a 56‑day reservation period and will pay a non‑refundable Reservation Fee of 4.5% of the purchase price (minimum £6,600 including VAT). A Buyer Information Pack is supplied (fee £349 including VAT) and personal data will be shared with the auctioneer. Optional recommended services may be offered for up to £450.
The flat is suited to first‑time buyers or investors seeking an affordable central purchase with refurbishment potential. Expect small rooms and basic external maintenance; the block and surroundings show signs of wear and will benefit from improvement. Broadband is reported fast, but the area has very high crime levels and is classified as very deprived, factors to consider for owner‑occupiers and landlords alike.
Viewings and pre‑purchase checks are strongly advised, especially if financing with a mortgage. Inspect with your lender and review the buyer pack before bidding to understand leasehold terms, service arrangements, and the auction obligations that apply.
