Summary - 18 FLAT 3 LEMSFORD ROAD ST. ALBANS AL1 3PB
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Central, commuter-friendly flat near station and city amenities.
Chain-free first-floor apartment with two double bedrooms
Set on desirable Lemsford Road, this first-floor two-bedroom apartment offers a practical layout and good commuter links — St Albans City station is about 0.4 miles away. The living room and two double bedrooms provide comfortable space for everyday living; a garage and off-road parking add useful convenience in a central location. The property is chain-free and comes with a share of the freehold split between four flats.
Buyers should be aware this sale is by Modern Auction. An undisclosed reserve price applies and the buyer must pay a non-refundable Reservation Fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600) plus additional buyer pack and administration costs. The sale process requires completion within 56 days and other auction-specific checks — do your own due diligence and confirm exact costs before bidding.
The apartment sits in a period building (constructed c.1900–1929) with likely period features and solid brick walls. Some elements are dated and there may be single-glazed windows and limited wall insulation; the property will suit someone prepared to refresh or upgrade. The lease has about 93 years remaining and the share of freehold is divided between the four flats — check service arrangements and any forthcoming maintenance plans.
Practical positives include mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, an average overall size of c.883 sq ft, and proximity to strong local schools and city amenities. Notable negatives are the auction fees and process, the relatively short lease compared with freehold homes, and the local recorded high crime level — these factors should be considered when valuing long-term suitability or rental prospects.
