This chain-free ground-floor apartment sits in Old Hatfield’s historic quarter, a short walk from the train station and Hatfield House. The layout offers a generous lounge/diner, two double bedrooms and a refitted shower room — a practical first home or buy-to-let in a well-kept mid‑20th century block.
Highlights include double glazing, a private garage and well-maintained communal gardens that add outdoor space without personal upkeep. The compact fitted kitchen and wood-effect flooring make the flat move-in ready for buyers who prioritise location and convenience.
Practical points to note: heating is purely electric (wall/room heaters), which can mean higher running costs than gas central heating. The property is leasehold with approximately 107 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £1,500 and ground rent circa £200. The development records above-average local crime statistics; buyers should review local data and insurance implications.
Overall this apartment suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a straightforward, low-maintenance home near transport links and good schools. The combination of immediate vacant possession, allocated garage parking and short distance to amenities gives the property clear commuter and rental appeal, provided you account for service charges and electric heating costs.
