Summary - 1, Spencer Way, LETCHWORTH GARDEN CITY SG6 4RS
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free opportunity needing modernisation near good schools and local amenities.
Chain-free ground-floor two-bedroom apartment with allocated parking
This ground-floor two-bedroom apartment sits in a tidy, purpose-built block on a corner plot in Letchworth Garden City. Offered chain-free with vacant possession, it has a practical layout — lounge/diner, separate kitchen, two bedrooms and a family bathroom — and an allocated off-street parking space. The block and communal grounds appear well maintained, and local schools and amenities are within easy reach.
The flat is in need of full modernisation and redecoration throughout, so it will suit a buyer prepared to invest in updating finishes, kitchen and bathroom. Heating is by electric storage heaters and glazing is double glazed; buyers should factor typical upgrading costs for comfort and energy efficiency. There is no private garden and outdoor space is limited to communal areas.
A material drawback is the lease length: 78 years remaining. Many mortgage lenders impose strict minimums and may refuse to lend on short leases, so buyers should check mortgageability or consider a cash purchase. Council Tax Band B and low local crime make this a relatively inexpensive home to run, but the property’s condition and lease position are key considerations for purchase plans.
