This freshly refurbished two-bedroom flat offers an affordable route onto the property ladder via a 25% shared ownership share. The open-plan 19'8 lounge/kitchen creates a light, usable social space while double glazing and gas central heating keep running costs sensible. Allocated off-street parking and lift access add everyday convenience in a town-centre location close to shops, schools and Hemel Hempstead station with fast trains to London.
The flat sits in a purpose-built block constructed from 2007 onwards and benefits from new flooring throughout and modern kitchen fittings. Layout is practical: a generous main bedroom, a smaller second bedroom suitable for a home office or child, and a family bathroom with shower over bath. The property’s 679 sq ft footprint is a comfortable size for couples, small families or commuters seeking a low-maintenance base.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold, shared ownership purchase with 83 years remaining on the lease; buyers will need to understand the shared ownership terms and any ongoing service or ground rent liabilities. There is no private garden and the complex is in an urban, higher-density area. Local crime statistics are higher than average, which may influence buyer priorities for security measures.
Overall this flat presents strong value for a first-time buyer or household looking for affordable town-centre living with good transport links and ready-to-move-in presentation, balanced against leasehold considerations, urban setting and local crime levels.
