Summary - THE LODGE 2 ORPHANAGE ROAD WATFORD WD24 4QZ
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Ready-to-rent commuter flat with parking and communal gardens, close to Watford stations.
Ground-floor two-bedroom apartment, 664 sq ft (62 sq m)
A ground-floor, two-bedroom apartment offering 664 sq ft of practical living in a well-located small block on Orphanage Road. The flat is presented in neutral, recently refreshed condition with a bright dual-aspect reception room, modern fitted kitchen and a contemporary bathroom — ready to occupy or rent immediately.
The property is a strong commuter and investor proposition: only moments from Watford Junction and High Street stations, close to town-centre amenities and local schools. Allocated resident parking, visitor bays and well-tended communal gardens add low-maintenance outdoor space without private garden upkeep.
Notable practical facts: the home is leasehold with c.106 years remaining, an annual service charge around £1,700 and a small ground rent of £100. Heating is by electric room heaters (no gas or central heating), and the immediate area records high crime levels and high deprivation indices — factors to consider for owner-occupiers and investors when assessing insurance, management and rental demand.
Overall this is a straightforward, low-maintenance flat suited to first-time buyers seeking a commuter base or buy-to-let investors after a near-ready tenancy. The combination of EPC C, allocated parking and proximity to transport links are clear strengths; the leasehold costs, local area challenges and electric heating are the main practical drawbacks.
