This stylish second-floor apartment in central St Albans offers a practical, ready-to-move-in home for a first-time buyer. At around 546 sqft the one-bedroom layout features contemporary finishes throughout, Karndean oak-style flooring and a German kitchen with integrated appliances. A fitted wardrobe in the bedroom, separate utility connections and a modern bathroom add everyday convenience.
The flat comes with an allocated off-street parking space, video entry, programmable gas central heating and a comprehensive safety package (sprinkler, smoke, heat and CO detectors). Its location is a key asset — a short walk to St Albans City station for direct trains to London St Pancras and easy access to shops, bars and parks in the city centre.
Practical costs and considerations are clear: the property is leasehold (999 years from March 2018), with an annual service charge of £1,435.36 and ground rent of £300. Council Tax Band C for 2025/26 is £2,006.35. Note the local recorded crime level is very high; buyers should check up-to-date local safety information and consider this when viewing.
Chain-free sale and a long lease make this a straightforward purchase for a buyer seeking a central pied-à-terre or a buy-to-let opportunity. The apartment presents low immediate maintenance needs but offers limited scope to extend internally; any alterations would need leasehold permissions and consultation with managing agents.
