Compact two-bed retirement maisonette with canal views, central Berkhamsted location..
Light-filled open-plan living room with canal views
A compact, well-presented two-bedroom retirement maisonette overlooking the canal in central Berkhamsted. At about 580 sq ft this light-filled home suits someone looking to downsize without losing town-centre convenience: shops, station and riverside walks are all within easy reach. The open-plan living room and modern kitchen deliver low-maintenance, comfortable living, and communal waterside outside space extends the living area in fine weather.
Designed for residents aged 55 and over, the apartment includes practical features such as built-in wardrobes, loft storage, an elegant bathroom with a rainfall shower and heated towel rail, and on-call emergency support plus a visiting estate manager. Mobile signal is excellent and council tax is described as affordable, making day-to-day life straightforward.
Buyers should note important practical points: the property is modest in size (580 sq ft) and the tenure is currently unspecified, though the freeholder intends to extend the lease at point of sale — confirm lease length and any associated costs before committing. There is a medium flood risk for the area and local crime levels are reported as high; consider insurance and security measures. Broadband speeds are average; those needing very fast home broadband should check providers.
This maisonette will appeal to downsizers and retirees who prioritise location, ease of access and low-maintenance living over large internal space. It offers a peaceful waterside outlook and practical single-level living, but comes with some environmental and tenure matters that need checking during due diligence.
