Set on the fifth floor of a mid-20th-century block in Leverstock Green, this one-bedroom flat offers a compact, bright living space with balcony and lift access. The apartment is chain-free and suited to first-time buyers, professionals or investors seeking a straightforward purchase with immediate let potential.
Practical features include off-street parking, double glazing, mains gas central heating and fast broadband — useful for modern living or rental demand. Service charge and ground rent are modestly priced for the block, and the lease has around 82 years remaining; council tax is very low.
The building is a system-built structure from the 1950s–60s and the flat will benefit from updating: interiors are dated and some thermal performance is uncertain due to assumed lack of insulation. Crime levels in the area are noted as high, and the wider area shows mixed socioeconomic indicators, though local schools rate well and local amenities are close by.
Overall this flat represents an affordable entry into Hemel Hempstead property, offering rental or owner-occupier potential with clear renovation upside. Buyers should factor in lease length, the need for modernisation and local safety considerations when viewing.
