A well-presented two-bedroom ground-floor flat in Aldykes, a short walk from Hatfield town centre and local transport links. The living room opens onto a private terraced area and the home includes a secure external shed for bikes or extra storage—useful for first-time buyers seeking practical outdoor space without a garden to maintain.
The flat has been recently refurbished and benefits from a new boiler (under one year) and a modern kitchen. Double-glazed windows throughout improve comfort and noise reduction. At about 593 sq ft the layout feels efficient: two bedrooms, lounge, kitchen and a bathroom with shower over bath—suitable for a couple or a starter home with some scope to personalise.
Important lease and cost details: the current lease shows 82 years remaining and the seller is in the process of extending it by 90 years—buyers should obtain confirmation of final lease length, costs and timescales and factor in potential leasehold pack fees. Ground rent is low (£10) but additional leasehold charges may apply.
Practical considerations: the building dates from the mid-20th century and walls are assumed to lack cavity insulation, which may affect running costs and could require future work. The area records above-average crime rates; prospective buyers should assess local security and parking. Overall, this is an affordable, move-in-ready starter flat with clear potential, provided lease and maintenance implications are checked.
