A two-bedroom first-floor maisonette with private side and rear garden, brick storage shed and garage parking, set in a quiet suburban road on the outskirts of Ware town centre. The layout is traditional and practical, with a living room, a large kitchen, fitted bathroom, double glazing and gas central heating via a boiler and radiators. The property has an extended lease (approx. 173 years remaining) and a peppercorn ground rent, making it straightforward for mortgage and purchase planning.
This home suits first-time buyers seeking a manageable starter property or buy-to-let investors looking for a lettable two-bedroom in a town with good commuter links; the mainline station is close by with regular services to London Liverpool Street. Council tax is described as cheap and broadband and mobile signals are strong — useful practical benefits for modern living or remote working.
Be candid about condition: the garden and some exterior areas show neglect and will need attention or light repair, and the overall presentation is dated rather than recently refurbished. Service charge of £850 is below average but should be factored into running costs. EPC is C and the building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s, so buyers should expect standard mid-century construction and potential scope for cosmetic updating.
On balance this is a sensible, well-positioned two-bed with long lease security, low running costs and straightforward improvement potential — a practical buy for someone seeking value with scope to add equity through modest renovation.
