Set on the first floor of a well-kept purpose-built block in St Albans' conservation area, this two-bedroom flat offers a practical layout and a sunny south-facing balcony overlooking communal greenery. The sitting/dining room and separate kitchen/breakfast room give a comfortable living arrangement for a first home or a buy-to-let, while two double bedrooms offer useful flexibility.
Practical long-term ownership is supported by a 142-year lease and no ground rent; the property is offered chain free for a straightforward purchase. Allocated off-street parking and visitor bays add convenience, and the location is very walkable to the city centre, mainline station and highly regarded schools.
Buyers should note the flat is average-sized (about 676 sq ft) and sits in a block with a £1,500 p.a. service charge. The communal exterior appears sound but features such as concrete balcony trims may need routine maintenance in time. Crime levels in the area are reported as above average, which some buyers may wish to investigate further.
Overall this is a sensible, well-located apartment for a first-time buyer, professional or investor seeking central St Albans access, straightforward ownership and lettable accommodation with good natural light and a private balcony.
