A chain‑free, one‑bedroom top-floor flat in central Bedford, offered with a neutral contemporary finish and retained Victorian character. The 766 sq ft layout benefits from high ceilings, an arched window, and a decorative fireplace, giving the flat charm alongside practical features such as double glazing and mains gas heating.
This property suits first‑time buyers or investors: it can be sold with a tenant in situ and sits within a terrace of converted period homes close to town amenities, schools and transport. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are strong, supporting modern living or lettings aimed at students and young professionals.
Buyers should note the material drawbacks: the building is an older timber‑framed Victorian conversion (pre‑1900) with assumed no cavity insulation in the walls, and the area records higher crime rates and relative deprivation. The accommodation is compact with no private rear garden; on‑street parking and a small paved forecourt provide limited external space.
Overall this is a characterful, well‑kept top‑floor flat with straightforward rental or owner‑occupier potential, but it will appeal most to those comfortable with period properties, modest room sizes and leasehold ownership.
