Summary - Park Street West, Luton LU1 3BE
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Ideal buy-to-let close to university with strong tenant demand and low running complexity..
Chain-free one-bedroom upper-floor flat, ideal for buy-to-let
A compact one-bedroom upper-floor apartment in central Luton, offered chain-free and ready for a buy‑to‑let or first-time purchase. The open-plan living area, fitted kitchen and communal parking offer low-maintenance city living a short walk from Luton railway station and the University of Bedfordshire. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, supporting renters who need good connectivity.
Practical running costs include a below-average service charge of £900 pa and a small ground rent of £250 pa. The flat is leasehold with approximately 84 years remaining — acceptable for many lenders but worth confirming with a solicitor if you plan long-term ownership. Heating is by electric room heaters; expect higher energy bills than gas-heated homes.
The property is compact (c. 348 sq ft) and best suited to investors targeting students or young professionals, or a single first-time buyer wanting town-centre convenience. The surrounding area is classified as very deprived but records very low crime and benefits from plentiful local amenities and several well-rated primary and secondary schools nearby.
Buyers should note the apartment’s age and condition: basic fittings, dated bedroom decor and electric heating mean limited immediate uplift without refurbishment. Leasehold additional fees (lease packs, legal searches) may apply and appliances and services have not been independently tested — arrange surveys and checks before committing.
