Ground-floor two-bed with private garden and gated parking, no onward chain.
Ground-floor two-bedroom apartment with private garden access
A bright ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in the heart of Leighton Buzzard, offered with no upper chain and an allocated gated underground parking space. The lounge/diner enjoys dual-aspect light and direct access to a private shingled garden area, giving a rare town-centre outside space. The layout includes a modern-fitted kitchen, two good-sized bedrooms and a contemporary three-piece bathroom. The flat totals approximately 715 sq ft and has a private storage cupboard.
Practical features include double glazing (fitted post-2002), a long lease (114 years remaining) and easy access to local shops, cafés and the mainline station with quick links to London. This apartment will suit a buyer wanting town-centre convenience and low-mobility access being on the ground floor.
Important considerations: the property is leasehold with an average service charge of £2,280 pa and annual ground rent of £350. Heating is by electric room heaters (no central gas system) which can be more expensive than gas central heating. The wider area records very high crime levels and is classed as a deprived locality, factors to weigh when deciding on long-term suitability.
Overall this is a sensible purchase for a first-time buyer or investor seeking an immediately habitable apartment in a central location, but budget for service charges, electric heating costs and be mindful of local area issues when arranging viewings and surveys.
