This one-bedroom upper-floor flat in Hemel Hempstead offers a compact, affordable entry into the property market. The living room and bedroom are well-proportioned for the overall size, and large windows bring good natural light. Communal gardens and proximity to local amenities (about 0.4 miles) add practical daily convenience.
Practical running costs include a relatively high service charge (approximately £2,100 pa) and a small annual ground rent (£125). Heating is by electric room heaters rather than central heating, which may increase energy costs and limit heating comfort. The flat is leasehold with around 75 years remaining — lenders can be cautious at this term, so mortgage options may be limited.
The property suits first-time buyers seeking an affordable home or investors wanting a straightforward rental let in a private-renting area. Expect some basic maintenance and possible modernization to improve energy efficiency and long-term value. Early checks on mortgageability and lease-extension costs are recommended before committing.
