Set on the south side of Borehamwood in a quiet cul-de-sac, this chain-free one-bedroom apartment offers a bright, practical home or buy-to-let opportunity. The first-floor flat extends to about 451 sq ft with an open-plan living/dining area, well-equipped kitchen and views over maintained communal gardens. Two allocated parking spaces and good local transport links suit commuters.
The property is leasehold with 100 years remaining, making it straightforward for most buyers. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the windows are double glazed (installed before 2002). Average running costs include a service charge of about £1,500pa and ground rent of around £300pa; council tax is described as affordable.
Notable practical considerations are the electric heating system and the age of the double glazing, both factors to review if you prefer gas central heating or more modern windows. Crime levels in the area are reported as high relative to local norms; buyers should factor local safety and insurance implications into their plans. Overall this flat suits a first-time buyer, downsizer or investor looking for a low-maintenance property in a commuter-friendly location.
