Chain‑free shared‑ownership flat with parking near Welwyn Garden City centre.
Open-plan one-bedroom apartment, 44 sq m (473 sq ft)
A compact, chain‑free one-bedroom apartment in Liberty House, Times Square — an open-plan, contemporary home aimed at first-time buyers or buy-to-live investors. The property offers an airy lounge/kitchen, double bedroom and modern bathroom across 44 sq m (473 sq ft), with allocated off-street parking and lift access. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the town centre and rail links are within easy walking distance.
This is a shared‑ownership opportunity offered at a 35% share (monthly rent £473) with the option to purchase outright at the advertised full price. The lease has around 117 years remaining. Service charge is approximately £139 pcm (total service charge stated £1,668 annually); additional leasehold fees may apply for legal packs or admin.
Practical positives include integrated kitchen appliances, included washer/dryer, double glazing and underfloor/boiler heating. The flat is move‑in ready but compact — room sizes suit a single person or couple rather than a family. Allocated parking and visitor spaces are useful in a central location.
Buyers should note the wider area is classified as deprived with above‑average local crime statistics and some neighbourhood hampering. These factors, plus ongoing service charge and rent payments under shared ownership, are important when assessing long‑term costs and suitability. For purchasers prioritising convenience, transport links and low‑maintenance living, this is a well‑located, affordable entry into Welwyn Garden City.
