Ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in over-55s development
This ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in St Augusta Court offers comfortable, low-maintenance living for the over-55s. The layout includes a bright living/dining room with patio doors onto a private patio, a fitted kitchen, generous double bedroom and a bathroom, all within circa 545 sq ft. Residents benefit from communal lounge areas, well-kept communal gardens and an allocated carport parking space.
Practical features include a Careline alarm service and no upper chain, making it straightforward to move into. The property is about one mile west of St Albans city centre, convenient for shops, transport and local amenities. Council tax is described as affordable and the area shows low crime and very affluent surroundings.
Important practical drawbacks are the lease length (approximately 61 years remaining) which could affect mortgage availability and resale value; buyers should check lender criteria and factor in potential future lease extension costs. Heating is by electric storage heaters rather than gas, and there may be additional leasehold fees or pack costs to budget for. Prospective purchasers are advised to obtain service checks and a survey if required.
