A top-floor two-bedroom apartment with no onward chain, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a central Hemel Hempstead base. The flat benefits from a long 990-year lease, a private balcony, and a garage in the block — rare conveniences for this size and price band.
Accommodation is straightforward and well proportioned for the footprint: entrance hall with storage, living/dining room, kitchen, two bedrooms (master with built-in wardrobes) and a bathroom. The building is a 1960s/70s brick development with communal grounds and residents' parking, and the flat sits close to shops, transport links and schools.
Buyers should note practical points: heating is by electric storage heaters and the EPC is D, so running costs may be higher than gas-heated homes. Service charges are approximately £1,979 per year. The apartment is presented neutrally but would benefit from cosmetic updating to maximise value.
Overall this is a compact, well-located leasehold flat offering straightforward entry to the market or a rental investment with long lease security and immediate access to local amenities and transport.
