This modern two-bedroom semi offers a straightforward buy-to-let opportunity in Markyate’s village centre. Built in 2015 and offered chain free, the home is ready to occupy with neutral finishes, integrated kitchen appliances and off-street parking for two — attractive practical features for tenants and short void periods.
The layout makes efficient use of 677 sq ft: open living/dining with French doors to a 35ft rear garden, fitted kitchen, guest cloakroom and two first-floor bedrooms served by a single fully tiled bathroom. The property’s recent construction, cavity insulation and mains gas boiler provide low-maintenance basics for rental management.
There is scope to increase value: the side offers potential to extend (subject to planning permission), which could add living space or a third bedroom. Transport links are strong for renters — easy access to the M1/M25, Luton Airport and nearby rail at Harpenden/St Albans — and local amenities are a short walk away.
Be aware of limitations that affect lettability and use. The plot is small and the house contains only one bathroom, which can constrain family or sharer demand. Broadband speeds are average and any side extension will require planning consent. Council tax is moderate; there is no flooding risk and crime levels are low.
