Summary - 153 HUGHENDEN ROAD ST ALBANS AL4 9QW
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Low-maintenance flat with garage and long lease close to top schools.
One double bedroom, living room, separate kitchen and bathroom
A bright one-bedroom first-floor maisonette with a long lease and practical extras, close to local shops and schools. The living room faces south, so rooms feel light for the property’s modest footprint. An allocated garage in a nearby block and a communal bike store add valuable storage and parking not always found with flats.
At about 448 sq ft, the layout suits a single occupant or couple and will particularly appeal to first-time buyers wanting low-maintenance living and good local schools. It sits 0.5 miles from Sandringham School and about 1.8 miles from St Albans city centre and mainline rail links, making commutes and family routines straightforward.
Running costs are reasonable: gas central heating with a modern boiler, double glazing installed after 2002, a below-average service charge of £860, and low council tax. The lease is generous at 189 years, removing immediate lease-extension costs commonly seen with flats.
Practical considerations: rooms are modest in size, reflecting the apartment’s overall square footage, and the surrounding area records above-average crime levels—buyers should consider security measures. The setting is a mid‑century brick courtyard development with internal estate outlook rather than open countryside or landmark views.
