A bright, chain-free one-bedroom ground floor maisonette a short walk from Watford Junction and the town centre. The apartment combines generous open-plan living with a separate snug that works well as a home office. The bay-windowed double bedroom and high ceilings retain period character while modern double glazing and gas central heating provide everyday comfort.
Externally there is a private rear garden and an allocated driveway parking space — rare extras for this size and location. The property is sold with a very long lease and a share of freehold with no service charge, simplifying ownership and reducing running costs.
Practical points: the building dates from the early 20th century and external walls are likely uninsulated, so heating bills and further insulation work should be considered. The immediate area records very high crime levels, which is an important factor for buyers to weigh alongside excellent transport links and local amenities. Overall, this maisonette suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a well-located, low-running-cost home with scope for modest improvement.
