This ground-floor, chain-free apartment at Marlborough Court suits first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors seeking low-entry city living. The layout includes two double bedrooms, an ensuite to the master and a private patio/balcony accessed from bedroom one, plus a secure underground parking space. The flat is compact (about 517 sq ft) but well laid out, with a bright living room and fitted kitchen.
Practical details work in its favour: a very long lease (950 years), communal gardens, easy walking distance to Luton station and The Mall, and quick access to the University of Bedfordshire and J10 of the M1. Council tax band is relatively low and the EPC is C.
Buyers should note the apartment uses electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas heating, and the property sits in a very deprived wider area with a strong student presence — factors that influence future rental demand and resale. Annual service charge and ground rent apply (approx. £2,859 pa service charge; £317.46 pa ground rent).
Overall, this apartment offers a convenient, low-maintenance base for commuters or investors wanting immediate rental potential. It is best for buyers who prioritise location and affordability over generous internal space and who accept running-cost implications from electric heating.
