This spacious two-double-bedroom apartment offers a comfortable first home with generous living space and a private balcony. The open-plan lounge/diner feels larger than average and flows from a separate, practical kitchen — a useful layout for everyday living and entertaining.
Practical features include allocated off-street parking, a very long lease (975 years) and double glazing installed after 2002. The block was built in the 2003–2006 period and sits within easy walking distance of the town centre, Hemel Hempstead station and local parks and schools — convenient for commutes and family life.
Be aware of some ongoing costs and local issues: the service charge is relatively high at £4,200 per year and ground rent is £286 annually. The property uses electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive to run than gas central heating, and the immediate area records higher-than-average crime levels. Broadband speeds are average, though mobile signal is excellent.
