This compact second-floor apartment offers a straightforward, low-maintenance option for a first-time buyer seeking easy commuting and secure parking. The open-plan living room with integrated kitchen and three windows provides a bright social space, while two bedrooms and an en-suite give practical flexibility for couples or sharers. A detached garage plus an allocated parking space are rare extras for a property of this size.
Important practical details are clear: the lease has about 135 years remaining, the annual service charge is £1,550.29 and the ground rent is £340 per year. The apartment sits in a small block of only two properties, which reduces communal activity but also means limited shared facilities. The overall footprint is modest — rooms suit everyday living but are smaller than many family-sized homes.
Location is a key selling point for commuters: quick access to the M1 and a short drive to Leagrave Thameslink station. Local shops and supermarkets are close by, and several primary and secondary schools with Good Ofsted ratings serve the area. Be aware of slower broadband speeds locally and a higher recorded crime level in the immediate area; these factors are relevant for working-from-home needs and personal security considerations.
