Compact second-floor flat with garage and balcony, ideal for rail commuters.
Chain free, easy sale for buyer flexibility
This compact one-bedroom flat in Hazelwood Close offers an affordable, chain-free entry into Hitchin town centre. Set on the second floor with a pleasant balcony, the apartment benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and an EPC rating of C — practical features for year-round comfort.
Generous room proportions and a well-arranged linear layout make the most of its 422 sq ft. Outside storage is a genuine asset: a private garage plus two brick sheds and residents’ parking provide useful space for bikes, tools or seasonal items. The flat is a short walk from the station and local amenities, making it well placed for commuters or buyers seeking town-centre convenience.
Important points to note: the property is leasehold, with a very low ground rent (reported £10) and modest service charges, and the building dates from the mid-20th century. The overall size is small — suitable for a single occupant or couple — and the area reports higher-than-average crime levels, which prospective buyers should consider when comparing neighbourhoods.
For first-time buyers or investors this flat represents low-entry ownership near transport links and town amenities. It will suit purchasers prioritising location, storage and low running costs, though those needing more living space or seeking a quieter low-crime pocket of town may prefer to view alternatives.
