Set just off Lemsford Road, this ground-floor two-bedroom flat combines practical living space with a central commuter location. Light streams through large windows into the lounge/diner and kitchen, while gas central heating and double glazing provide reliable comfort year-round. The layout includes a private balcony, lock-up storeroom and residents' permit off-street parking — convenient extras for everyday life.
The flat sits in a mid-century modern block and offers about 61 sq m (657 sq ft) of accommodation: two double bedrooms, a fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, a bathroom with shower-over-bath, and useful built-in storage. The long lease (172 years remaining), low ground rent (£10 p.a.) and modest service charge (£897 p.a.) add financial clarity for buyers and landlords.
Location is a major strength: a seven-minute walk to St Albans City station and an easy stroll to the High Street, schools and local amenities. That makes this a strong choice for first-time buyers and commuters; it also suits buy-to-let investors seeking consistent demand in a very affluent area. Be aware the local recorded crime level is high — prospective buyers should satisfy themselves on safety and security measures.
