A newly built, ground-floor two-bedroom apartment offered as a 25% shared ownership opportunity — ideal for first-time buyers seeking an affordable route onto the property ladder in Letchworth Garden City. The open-plan living area, contemporary kitchen with integrated appliances and a utility cupboard make the layout practical for everyday living and entertaining. One allocated off-street parking space includes an EV charger, and communal garden, bike storage and visitor parking add convenience.
The specification is modern throughout with luxury vinyl and fitted carpets, inset spotlights, USB sockets and energy-efficient fittings. The property sits within easy walking distance of the town centre, shops and Letchworth train station with fast rail links to London, making it a sensible choice for commuters. Broadband speeds are reported as fast and mobile signal excellent.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold shared ownership home: a 25% share is priced from £67,500 with an indicative rent of £464.06 pcm and a service charge around £157.07 pcm (total service charge quoted £1,884.84 annually). A non-refundable £500 reservation fee applies and completion is anticipated November 2025. The long 990-year lease and 12-year NHBC warranty are positives, but shared-ownership costs and commitments are important to consider.
There is no evidence of private rear garden or exceptional external views and the area records higher-than-average crime levels, which some buyers may wish to investigate further. Overall this is a compact, low-maintenance new-build apartment that offers an accessible purchase route for buyers prioritising location, modern finishes and commuter links, provided they are comfortable with shared-ownership terms.
