Characterful two-bedroom flat with garage and garden access, ready for refurbishment.
Chain-free ground-floor two-bedroom with 695 sq ft living space
Tall ceilings, decorative cornicing and bright box bay living room
Requires renovation throughout; current boiler is non-functioning
Long lease: 168 years remaining (leasehold)
Service charge £1,253 for current year; communal maintenance applies
Private garage included; access to walled communal lawn
Prime Castle Quarter location, 70m from The Embankment
Approx five rooms; suited to refurbishment or rental investment
Set within a grand Victorian house on one of Bedford’s premium roads, this ground-floor two-bedroom apartment offers generous proportions and period detail ready for restoration. Tall ceilings, decorative cornicing and a bright box bay living room give the flat a characterful feel and strong visual appeal once upgraded.
The accommodation requires a full refresh: the interior is tired and the boiler is currently non-functioning. That condition presents clear scope to refurbish and add value, whether as a first home or a rental/refurbishment project. The long lease (168 years) and chain-free position reduce purchase friction.
Practical benefits include a private garage, communal access to a walled three-quarter-acre lawn (small maintenance charge) and a convenient Castle Quarter location just 70m from The Embankment. Service charge for the current year is £1,253; the property is leasehold and will need renovation investment to reach its potential.
This apartment will suit buyers seeking period features and room to add value rather than a finished turnkey home. Be prepared to budget for building services, a working boiler and cosmetic refurbishment to unlock the flat’s full appeal.
