Summary - SWANLEY COURT FLAT 9 NORTHFIELD GARDENS WATFORD WD24 7RJ
1 bed 1 bath Maisonette
Chain-free, commuter-friendly ground-floor home with parking and communal gardens..
Ground-floor one-bedroom maisonette, approx. 506 sq ft
A spacious one-bedroom ground-floor maisonette in a small, well-kept development just 0.3 miles from Watford North station, ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking immediate commuter convenience. The flat offers a generous lounge/diner with excellent built-in storage, an open-plan kitchen, a double bedroom with a bay window and a modern bathroom. UPVC double glazing, gas central heating and allocated off-street parking add practical, low-hassle living.
Externally there are large communal gardens for summer use and visitor parking. The property is offered chain free and comes with a share of freehold, which provides stronger long-term control compared with many leases. Service charges are modest (about £890/year) and there is no ground rent.
Notable considerations: the lease has approximately 90 years remaining, which may affect mortgage availability and future value unless extended. The local area records above-average crime rates, so purchasers should check recent local crime statistics and consider security measures. The plot is small and the maisonette forms part of a mid-terrace modern block built in the 1980s.
In short, this is a practical, well-presented starter home or rental opportunity in a commuter-friendly location, with clear value-drivers (parking, storage, gardens, share of freehold) balanced by the medium-length lease and local safety considerations.
