Bright two-bedroom with balcony and allocated parking, minutes from the station.
Top-floor corner position with panoramic, dual-aspect views
Light-filled and well laid out, this two-bedroom top-floor corner apartment offers over 760 sq ft of contemporary living. The dual-aspect open-plan kitchen/reception gives space for dining and relaxing, with a large L-shaped balcony and far-reaching panoramic views. The main bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room; the second bedroom makes a comfortable home office or guest room.
Practical strengths include a 992-year lease, allocated parking with visitor bays, a modest ground rent (£250 pa) and an average service charge (£1,600 pa). Modern gloss integrated kitchen units, two bathrooms and an included NHBC warranty reduce short-term maintenance needs. Electric heating and fast broadband suit low-footprint, connected lifestyles.
Notable negatives are factual: the local crime rate is above average and the property is in a socially diverse area. Council tax is moderate and the development has communal costs. Buyers should note the apartment is leasehold and on electric heating, which may affect future running costs depending on usage and tariffs.
Well placed for commuting, Elstree & Borehamwood station is within minutes, offering services to London St Pancras in under 30 minutes. Shops, parks and local schools with Good Ofsted ratings are walkable, making this a sensible pick for first-time buyers seeking a move-in ready, long-lease home with parking and outdoor space.
