Summary - CRABTREE COURT 10 CRABTREE LANE HEMEL HEMPSTEAD HP3 9JH
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Affordable first home with long lease and low running costs.
One-bedroom first-floor flat, approximately 518 sq ft
A well-priced one-bedroom first-floor flat offering clear scope to add value through cosmetic refurbishment. The apartment sits in a purpose-built 1980s block with communal grounds and enjoys a long lease (circa 180 years), low service charge and no ground rent — useful ownership costs for a first-time buyer.
Internally the layout delivers a spacious lounge, a good-sized double bedroom, a small fitted kitchen and a compact three-piece bathroom. The property benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and pleasant outlook onto shared greenery. Broadband and mobile signal are strong and local shops and bus routes are within easy walking distance.
The flat does require updating: fixtures, finishes and some surfaces are dated and carpeting and kitchen units will need replacement for modern standards. This is reflected in the asking price and presents an opportunity to increase value with relatively straightforward refurbishment. Ideal for someone seeking an affordable entry into the area or a buy-to-let with minimal structural work required.
Practical positives include a secure shared drying area, very low local crime, and nearby good primary and secondary schools. Note the apartment’s modest internal size (c. 518 sq ft) which suits one-person or couple occupancy rather than larger households.
