Commuter-focused, newly built apartment with balcony and communal garden.
Less than two-minute walk to Bishop’s Stortford train station
This nearly new one-bedroom apartment in Switchyard House offers modern, commuter-friendly living less than a two-minute walk from Bishop’s Stortford station. Built in 2024, the first-floor home is accessed by lift and delivers a generous 657 sq ft layout with an open-plan kitchen/living area that opens onto a wide private balcony. The double bedroom has integrated wardrobes and the bathroom and finishes are high quality throughout.
Communal facilities include a landscaped garden, secure ground-floor locker area for deliveries, and well-kept common areas. The property is chain-free, comes with a long lease (999 years) and a low service charge of £843 per year; ground rent is nil. With direct rail links to London Liverpool Street (about 35 minutes) and Cambridge (about 40 minutes), it suits commuters and investors seeking reliable rental demand.
Buyers should note heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, which can mean higher running costs depending on tariff and usage. Although the apartment matches other units in the block in layout and finish, this specific flat benefits from a more private outlook away from the station. Council tax sits in Band B, keeping local charges relatively low.
Overall, the property will appeal to first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors looking for a ready-to-move-in, low-maintenance home with excellent transport links and attractive communal amenities. Any purchaser wanting different heating or specific customisation should allow for potential future upgrades.
