50% shared ownership, close to St Albans station — ideal for first-time buyers and commuters.
50% shared ownership — buyer to meet staircasing/eligibility rules
This 50% shared-ownership, two-bedroom apartment offers a practical entry into St Albans living with strong commuter credentials. Bright, dual-aspect living space and a contemporary fitted kitchen with granite flooring give the home a modern feel, while the principal bedroom includes built-in wardrobes for useful storage. At approximately 691 sq ft, rooms are naturally proportioned and the apartment includes two bathrooms, making it comfortable for couples or small families.
The development sits about 0.6 miles from St Albans City Station, an attractive benefit for commuters. Allocated off-street parking and generally low running costs (service charge £540) reduce monthly outgoings. A long lease of 124 years improves mortgageability and future saleability compared with shorter leasehold properties.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold, shared-ownership property (50% ownership), so onward purchasers will need to meet shared-ownership eligibility and staircasing rules. There is no private garden and external amenity space is limited; communal landscaped beds only. Also confirm the apartment’s exact floor level internally, as some listing notes differ. Internal inspection is recommended to check condition, fixtures and communal areas before purchase.
Overall this apartment suits first-time buyers or commuters looking for a modern, low-maintenance home in central St Albans with good transport links and manageable running costs.
