Light first-floor flat near station with long lease and low charges.
0.6 miles to St Albans City Station – excellent for commuters
Set on the first floor of a well-kept modern development, this two-bedroom apartment offers a commuter-friendly base just 0.6 miles from St Albans City Station. The dual-aspect living room feels light and airy, and the contemporary kitchen with granite flooring and sleek worktops gives the flat a tidy, modern finish. Two double bedrooms include a principal room with built-in wardrobes for convenient storage.
Practical running costs help the money go further: a long lease (124 years), below-average service charge (£540) and affordable council tax make this attractive to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. Allocated off-street parking is a useful bonus in this central location, and nearby schools, shops and green spaces add everyday convenience.
Be clear on the layout limits: total internal area is around 691 sq ft, rooms are modestly proportioned and there is no private garden — communal grounds only. The block sits close to the pavement, so expect street/city views rather than open countryside vistas. Overall this is a sensible, low-maintenance home with scope for value uplift through minor updating.
For buyers prioritising location, low running costs and easy transport links, this apartment is a practical, move-in-ready option. Those needing larger living areas or private outdoor space should note the compact footprint and communal external areas before viewing.
