Summary - BROOKLANDS HOUSE FLAT 8 LEIGHTON ROAD LEIGHTON BUZZARD LU7 1LD
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Spacious two-bed apartment with loft storage and gated parking, close to station..
Top-floor two-bedroom apartment, approx. 691 sq ft
Tucked on the top floor of Brooklands House, this bright two-bedroom apartment offers generous living space and practical extras for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The open-plan kitchen/living area benefits from Velux lighting and large double-glazed windows, creating a spacious feel across the home's approximate 691 sq ft. A private loft provides useful storage seldom found in flats, and the property includes an allocated gated parking space.
The building is well maintained and sits within easy walking distance of Leighton Buzzard station, the town centre and canal walks — excellent for commuters and for those who value local amenities. The accommodation includes two good-sized bedrooms and a neatly presented bathroom, making the layout straightforward and easy to rent or run as a starter home.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: the flat is leasehold with 103 years remaining, a service charge of about £1,675 pa and a ground rent of £125 pa. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the double glazing appears to pre-date 2002, which may mean replacement or upgrades are desirable. The area registers a higher-than-average crime level, so prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves on safety and security measures.
Overall this property represents a practical, well-located purchase with clear commuter appeal and storage benefits. It suits someone seeking a manageable first home or an investor wanting a straightforward rental proposition, provided they accept the leasehold costs, heating type and the need to consider glazing and security upgrades.
