Summary - DUNFERMLINE HOUSE 7 OTLEY WAY WATFORD WD19 7SY
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free one-bed flat with private garden and excellent rail links — good entry-level buy.
No upper chain — ready for a quick sale
This ground-floor one-bedroom flat offers an accessible entry into the market with no upper chain and a private garden – a rare find for a flat. The accommodation includes a generous lounge, modern fitted kitchen, double glazing and gas central heating, arranged over approximately 474 sq ft. Proximity to Carpenders Park Overground station and local amenities makes commuting and daily errands straightforward.
The lease has 89 years remaining (125-year term from 1990). Annual running costs include a service charge around £1,038.75 and a ground rent of £10. Council tax is low. The building dates from the early 20th century with solid brick walls (likely uninsulated), so there is potential to improve energy efficiency and personalise the interior.
Buyers should note material considerations: the area records higher crime rates and significant local deprivation, and the block is in a built form typical of its period with assumed limited wall insulation. The flat suits a first-time buyer or investor who values transport links, a private outdoor space and a chain-free purchase, and who is comfortable addressing possible retrofit or security measures over time.
