Summary - Plough House, Bedford MK42 9AR
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact modern apartment with underground parking and strong transport links.
Open-plan living with good natural light
A well-presented one-bedroom apartment ideal for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The home offers open-plan living with good natural light, a modern compact kitchen area and a private underground parking space — a rare practical plus close to Bedford town centre.
The location is a strong selling point: within walking distance of Bedford Hospital, the mainline rail station and riverside amenities including shops, restaurants and a cinema complex. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are both excellent, and crime levels are very low, supporting comfortable everyday living and rental appeal.
Practical costs and condition notes are straightforward. The lease is exceptionally long (994 years) and ground rent is low, but the service charge is notable at about £1,603.92 per year. The apartment is modest in size (approximately 469 sq ft) and there is a reported potential for damp in one area — a buyer should inspect this and confirm services, measurements and EPC/council tax details before committing.
Overall, this flat suits someone seeking a low-maintenance, centrally located starter home or a rental with reliable tenant demand from nearby hospital staff and commuters. Viewing recommended to assess space, storage and any remedial work required.
