A well-presented, bay-fronted first-floor flat in a Victorian semi on De Parys Avenue, convenient for Bedford town centre and the train station. The accommodation includes a bay-front lounge/diner, separate kitchen, two bedrooms and a family bathroom — arranged as a compact, easy-to-manage home or rental asset. The property benefits from a garage and parking space, mains gas heating and fast broadband/mobile connectivity.
Practical points for buyers: the flat is leasehold with c.88 years remaining, an annual ground rent of £200 and a service charge of approximately £1,000 per year. Construction is original solid brick (c.1900–1929) and likely lacks wall insulation; heating is by boiler and radiators. Council tax is very low and there is no flooding risk.
This is a sensible choice for first-time buyers seeking character and proximity to transport, or investors after a centrally located two-bed with parking. The communal and local area classifications indicate mixed demographics (retirement and student neighbourhood influences) and the surrounding area shows signs of deprivation, so factor local market and tenant demand into plans. Overall the flat presents immediate occupancy or rental potential, with modest ongoing charges and some thermal upgrade opportunities.
