This well-presented one-bedroom ground-floor maisonette sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and offers a compact, efficient layout for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The lounge is a good size for the overall footprint and the galley kitchen is practical for everyday use. The property benefits from a south-facing private rear garden plus an additional side garden — rare for a ground-floor flat — and allocated off-street parking.
The home is leasehold with 89 years remaining; there is no service charge but an annual ground rent of £175 and buildings insurance around £315 per year. EPC Band C and Council Tax Band B keep running costs reasonable. Potential rental income is estimated at about £1,000 PCM, making this a straightforward starter purchase or rental investment in a very low-crime, well-connected area of Bishop’s Stortford.
Internally the accommodation is modest (approximately 441 sq ft) and reflects a traditional layout from the late 1970s–early 1980s build. The property appears well maintained, but buyers should note the limited lease length and verify all lease details and service arrangements with a solicitor. A modest budget for updates or redecoration may be sensible to personalise the space or maximise rental yield.
Set in an affluent, family-oriented neighbourhood with good schools and fast broadband, this maisonette offers an affordable route into the local market. It’s best suited to a single occupant, couple, or investor seeking a low-maintenance let close to local amenities and transport links.
