Summary - Duroco Court, Collie Place, Houghton Regis LU5 6TY
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Affordable modern apartment with balcony and parking for first-time buyers.
40% shared ownership available; full price £278,000, share £111,200
A practical step onto the property ladder, this modern two-bedroom top-floor apartment is offered as a 40% shared ownership share (purchase price £111,200; full price £278,000). Built in 2021, the home combines a bright open-plan living area with a private balcony, integrated kitchen appliances and allocated off-street parking — a straightforward, low-maintenance base for first-time buyers.
The layout suits flexible living: two double bedrooms (master with a fitted wardrobe), a contemporary three-piece bathroom with shower-over-bath, and an open-plan kitchen/dining/lounge ideal for everyday living or light entertaining. At around 728 sq ft overall, the apartment is a comfortable size for young couples or individuals needing a home office corner.
Important tenure and scheme details: the property is leasehold and sold through shared ownership (40% share shown). The long lease (990 years) is a strength, but shared ownership brings specific rules and charges; potential buyers should check any landlord nomination rights, resale restrictions and rules on pets or subletting before committing. Service charges and rent on the unsold share will apply and should be budgeted for alongside the mortgage.
Practical positives include mains gas central heating, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, plus the recent construction means modern thermal performance and contemporary fittings. The apartment has no identified flood risk and benefits from nearby transport links to Luton and Dunstable, making commuting straightforward. Viewings are recommended for anyone seeking an affordable entry into homeownership with good long-term potential through staircasing to a larger share.
