This well-presented one-bedroom first-floor flat is an economical entry onto the market for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. Fully refurbished in 2019, it offers contemporary décor, integrated kitchen appliances and replacement triple-glazed windows throughout, helping reduce external noise from nearby transport links.
Practical features include a long lease (approx. 938 years), low annual service charge (£840) and resident off-street parking. The flat is compact (approximately 477 sq ft) and arranged as an open-plan living room with a fitted kitchen, one double bedroom and a modern bathroom — a straightforward, low-maintenance home or rental unit.
Buyers should note the heating is electric (storage heaters), which can be more costly than gas alternatives, and the building is of 1967–75 construction with cavity walls that are assumed to have no added insulation. The energy rating is D and Council Tax is in Band A. The local area scores high for crime, so consider personal security and insurance implications.
Location is the property’s strong suit: within walking distance of Luton and Parkway ThamesLink stations (direct trains to London St Pancras), minutes from the M1 (J10) and under a 10-minute drive to London Luton Airport. These transport links support commuter convenience and strong rental demand, with a suggested rental estimate provided in the listing.
