Light, chain-free two-bedroom ground-floor maisonette presented in a contemporary style and ready to move into. The open-plan living area opens via French doors to the front and the fitted kitchen includes a breakfast bar for easy everyday living. Underfloor heating and electric storage heaters provide warmth, and a sauna in the bathroom is an unusual extra.
Practical running costs to note: the property is leasehold with 168 years remaining, an annual ground rent of £500 and an average service charge of £2,000. Heating runs on electricity which can be more expensive than gas; the building has double glazing but installation dates are unspecified. Resident off-street parking is available.
Location is a major convenience for first-time buyers: it’s within walking distance of Stevenage station and close to local shops, bars and restaurants. Several well-rated local primary and secondary schools are nearby. Be aware the wider area scores as deprived and local crime is above average — factor this into safety and insurance considerations.
This maisonette suits a purchaser looking for a low-maintenance, ready-to-live-in home or a buy-to-let investor wanting a central, well-connected property. Viewing is recommended to judge the condition and the immediate neighbourhood personally.
