Bright, well-proportioned two-bedroom top-floor apartment in Gatcombe Court, minutes from St Albans City station. The principal bedroom includes built-in wardrobes and an ensuite; the living/dining room benefits from dual-aspect windows and good natural light. A separate fitted kitchen and additional cloakroom add practical convenience for everyday living.
The development offers secure entry, lift access to all floors and an allocated parking space with visitor bays. Communal grounds are well-maintained and the building dates from the late 1990s, with double glazing already installed. With 774 sq ft of accommodation, the layout suits a couple, small family or a commuter looking for easy access to the city and rail links.
Practical considerations: the home is leasehold (long lease remaining: 972 years) and has an average annual service charge of £3,638 plus a small ground rent of £50. Heating is electric via boiler and radiators, which may mean higher running costs than gas central heating. Council tax is moderate and local area amenities, schools and fast broadband support everyday needs.
Overall this is a straightforward, low-maintenance apartment with immediate move-in potential and solid commuter appeal. Buyers should budget for the ongoing service charge and consider heating costs when comparing monthly outgoings.
