Spacious town-centre one-bed with long lease, lift access and great commuter links.
Town-centre location, short walk to Bedford mainline station
Set in the heart of Bedford town centre, this well-presented one-bedroom apartment offers a practical, low-hassle entry to ownership. The apartment has a generous 21 ft living room and a fitted kitchen/diner with integrated appliances, creating a bright, social space ideal for first-time buyers or commuters. Lift access and a secure video entry system add everyday convenience.
The property sits within walking distance of Bedford mainline station (about 48 minutes to London) and town amenities, including riverside cafés and the hospital. A long lease (203 years remaining) and peppercorn ground rent reduce long-term ownership costs, and the council tax is noted as very cheap — attractive points for a cost-conscious buyer or investor seeking steady rental demand in a student-and-professional area.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat with an annual service charge of £1,438. The apartment is in a mid-20th-century mixed-use building, and while well presented internally, communal management costs and building maintenance responsibility sit with leaseholders. The location in a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood boosts rental potential but may bring higher footfall and occasional noise.
This chain-free apartment suits a first-time buyer wanting central convenience, a commuter needing easy station access, or an investor looking for straightforward, town-centre rental stock. Interested parties should verify EPC, estate management arrangements, and confirm measurements and services before committing.
