Summary - ARLINGTON COURT 1 CHURCH LANE NEWMARKET CB8 0HN
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Affordable two-bed with parking, close to amenities and good rental demand.
Central Newmarket location, steps from shops and racecourse
Step straight into home ownership with this ground-floor two-bedroom flat in the heart of Newmarket. The flat offers two generous double bedrooms, a living room/diner, a fitted kitchen and hallway storage across a practical 755 sq ft — a comfortable size for first-time buyers or an investor seeking strong local rental demand. Allocated private off-street parking is a useful perk in this central location, with shops, cafés, bars and the racecourse all within easy walking distance.
The property sits in a late-20th-century red-brick block with double glazing, gas boiler heating and a traditional layout that will suit many buyers immediately. The long lease (976 years) and manageable council tax level are practical advantages for purchasers who prefer security and predictable running costs.
Buyers should note several important considerations. The area has above-average crime rates and a high flooding risk, which could affect insurance and resale values. The block’s exterior and communal areas show signs of age and may require future maintenance; the current service charge is £1,373 per year and ground rent £150 per year. This is a leasehold property, so buyers should be comfortable with that tenure.
For first-time buyers who prioritise location, convenience and parking, this flat represents an affordable entry point into central Newmarket. Investors will find the flexible layout and strong local amenity base attractive but should factor in flood risk, local deprivation indicators and communal maintenance when assessing yield and insurance costs.
