A freshly renovated, light-filled 2-bedroom retirement apartment in the heart of St Albans, ready to move into. The dual-aspect sitting room and newly fitted kitchen create a bright, contemporary living space finished in neutral Farrow & Ball tones, new carpets and flooring throughout.
Set on the second floor of a well-maintained over-55s development, the flat benefits from lift access, private resident and visitor parking, communal gardens and a residents' gate giving direct access to the River Ver and outdoor sitting areas. The larger bedroom includes wall-to-wall fitted wardrobes; the second room works well as a bedroom or office.
Practical details to note: this is a leasehold retirement property with roughly 101 years remaining, an average service charge of about £3,500 per year and a small ground rent of £50. The apartment is small overall (approximately 537 sq ft), and while lift access is provided, it occupies the second floor.
