This modern two-bedroom second-floor apartment offers a compact, well-laid-out home in a pleasant Bricket Wood development. At 612 sq ft the layout delivers two double bedrooms, a bright lounge with balcony, a fitted kitchen and a family bathroom — practical space for a first home or commuter base.
Key strengths include off-street parking, attractive communal grounds, an EPC C (72) rating and excellent mobile signal. The block was built in the late 2000s with low-maintenance brickwork and double glazing, and the location provides quick access to the M1 and nearby rail stations for commuting.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat with 106 years remaining and communal maintenance charges are likely. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, which may affect running costs. The apartment’s size is modest, so those needing extensive living space or long lease security should consider alternatives.
Overall this is a sensible, well-presented starter property or rental opportunity for someone prioritising transport links, low external maintenance and secure parking. Viewing will show how the internal layout and storage work for your needs.
