Summary -
11 Ellington Grove,HOUGHTON REGIS,LU5 6RF
LU5 6RF
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Affordable entry-level home with garden, parking and good transport links.
50% shared ownership — £162,500 share of £325,000 full price
A freshly refurbished two-bedroom semi-detached home offered at 50% shared ownership — ideal for a first-time buyer seeking modern, low-maintenance living. The property benefits from a B-rated EPC, two off-street parking spaces, and a private rear garden. At about 807 sq ft, the layout provides a bright living room, fitted kitchen, ground-floor WC and a family bathroom upstairs.
Practical running costs are clear: monthly rent on the shared ownership share is £347.05, with a service charge of £47.92 pcm (around £575.04 pa) and council tax band C. The lease has 123 years remaining. These sums make initial entry more affordable than buying outright, but purchasers should factor them into long-term affordability and resale planning.
The location suits everyday needs and weekend leisure: local shops and several ‘Good’ schools are within reach, and green space including The Downs is nearby for walks. Transport links are strong — guided busway connections to Luton Airport and station, plus easy access to the M1 via the new bypass — which will appeal to commuters.
Important considerations: this is a leasehold shared ownership home, so buyers must accept paying monthly rent and service charges and follow lease terms. The property is recently renovated and presents well, but anyone considering future changes should check permission requirements under the lease. Prospective purchasers should carry out independent checks, inspections and legal advice before committing.
