Summary - ALBANY COURT FLAT 8 DALLOW ROAD LUTON LU1 1NP
1 bed 1 bath Flat
One double bedroom with contemporary finish
This second-floor, one-bedroom apartment in Albany Court offers a compact, contemporary home or a straightforward buy-to-let in central Luton. The flat benefits from double glazing, a generous double bedroom, secure gated parking and entry phone, and chain-free sale — practical features for a first-time buyer or investor seeking immediate occupancy or rental income.
Key positives include a decent-sized bedroom, fitted kitchen, modern shower room and fast broadband/mobile signal. At 441 sq ft the accommodation is average-sized for a city flat and suits a single occupant or couple. Council tax is very cheap, which helps running costs, and allocated parking in gated grounds is a useful urban perk.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the lease has only around 82 years remaining and will need renewing quickly; that can affect mortgage availability and resale value. Service charges run about £1,200 annually and crime levels in the area are above average. The local area is classified as deprived with a young, ethnically diverse community — considerations for some buyers but potentially attractive for renters.
Overall, this is a practical, no-frills option for someone entering the market or growing a rental portfolio. It presents clear upside if the lease is extended and ongoing charges are acceptable, but purchasers should budget for any lease renewal and factor local area issues into their decision.
